The proposed maps: groups four Republican Illinois House members into the same district; puts 16 other Republicans into eight districts to face one another, plus one more Republican incumbent placed in a district with a Democratic incumbent; and puts two Republican state senators into the same district, including one who is pursuing a run for governor.
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.
