"While I was an at-large member of the Dallas City Council, I dealt with issues that involved constitutional questions. For instance, when addressing a lawsuit under Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, the council had to be sure to comply with the proportional representation requirement of the Equal Protection Clause."

Could you clarify something for me?

What is the citation for the lawsuit she's talking about.  The one where she briefly testified.  How was it resolved?

Thanks.

I have no idea. You'd think Miers would have clarified it though.
Her description is pretty vague, and the extent of this Constitutional experience she cites here appears to be that she was near by when a Constitutional issue may have been briefly considered by someone else.
