An attorney for Kay Siebler, a leader of a group called Let Lincoln Vote, said Wednesday they were "considering all of our legal options," leaving open the possibility of appeal.

Fairness Ordinance goes to court; Pinewood summer musical raises curtain; Nebraska Fan Day coming later this month.

Supporters of a fairness ordinance are asking a court to compel the Lincoln City Council to enact an ordinance or let voters decide.

The results of two Lincoln City Council primaries became clear Wednesday after more early ballots were counted.

Four seats are on the ballot this year, but only one incumbent is running, so the council will look different regardless of the results.

On Friday, Let Lincoln Vote filed for the second time a ballot initiative with the Lincoln city clerk.

David Shively wrote to Lincoln City Clerk Soulinnee Phan that his office would be unable to verify the signatures because they did not follow state law.

A group hoping to let Lincoln voters decide on the city's "Fairness Ordinance" turned in over 11,000 signatures for its petition.

A group handed in 11,000 petition signatures to allow a vote on expanding city protections to include sexual orientation, gender identity, military veterans and updated disability protections.

The "Fairness Ordinance" was rescinded last week by the Lincoln City Council, but it may not be dead yet.
