On June 1, some candidates for Roanoke, Virginia city council filed a lawsuit for ballot access relief. Roanoke has partisan city elections, and the plaintiffs are not the nominees of qualified parties. See this story. They ask for a reduction in the number of signatures from 125 to 50, and an extension of the June 9 petition deadline. The case is Alberto v City of Roanoke, CL20000997-00.

UPDATE: here is the Complaint.
