Staff Reporter
Douglas County Democrats will probably not appeal a May 5 decision of the Kansas Senate to a new group of Representatives reapportionment of voting districts, David Beckowitz, Douglas County Democrats.
The Democrats and some students had charged the reappointment split the KU
would be to concentrate on winning the districts, but we may talk to some of the people in other counties affected by the reapportionment about the appeal. The final decision probably won't be made until the fall. However, the legislature has maintained the confidence of some money to defend against a suit challenging the reconstitution."
Berkowitz, Lawrence lawyer, and State Rep. Mike Glover, representative from Lawrence whose district was significantly redrawn by the reapportionment, said soon after the decision was announced that they would probably appeal the decision.
"We haven't made a final decision yet," Berkowitz said, "but a lot of people think it's a matter of not just having the time. None of us are so sure we can afford to lose all of our time to this."

Berkowitz said any action in federal court would involve a petition to the court asking to reopen a 70 case in which the Federal Department lost its fight to force the forced Kansas House to reportion its voting districts because an earlier reapportionment was found to be unjust.

"I think we would have a good chance in federal court," Berkutz said.
