“It’s rich that the Governor now claims to support playing by the rules — after he enthusiastically signed into law the most gerrymandered maps in the nation,” House Republican Leader Tony McCombie said in a statement. “When it was convenient, he promised to reject partisan maps in favor of fair representation.” Illinois’ current congressional map earned an F grade from the independent Princeton Gerrymandering Project, finding the map fails in every category on political fairness and competition and geographic compactness.
An Illinois governor complaining about another state’s gerrymandering? If that isn’t the pot calling the kettle black, I don’t know what is.

Pritzker promised fair congressional maps, but instead gerrymandered IL districts to remove republican representation. Voters should sue and go to the US Supreme Court, since IL Supreme Court is owned by Democrats.

What does JB have to say about his fellow Liberal Governor Gavin Newsom’s recent comment about having an Emergency Meeting looking to redraw the Congressional Maps in CA in an attempt to push out the few remaining Republican Congressmen that are there?

It’s OK when Democrat/Communists do it. Glad some states take a stand against demorats.

JB The Hutt is the worst kind of liar and hypocrite.
IL Democrats are the worst offenders in America when it comes to gerrymandering.
Not only did they rig all these new districts, they rigged all future court challenges to those districts, by forcing plaintiffs to bring suit in crooked Democrat-controlled courts in Chicago and Springfield.

Just another log on the pile of lies by Pritzker who has never been held accountable for his lying. The standard bearer for obscene gerrymandering is the IL 17th district – no way on God’s green earth should a Leftist moron like Eric Sorenson be in Congress. TX should double-down on what Pritzker and IL Democrats did with districts and gerrymandering.
A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
