“For those of us in Illinois, we find this curious since we are equally gerrymandered to what Texas is trying to do,” said Dick Simpson, a retired political science professor and former Chicago Alderman. “We are taking all the fairness out of politics and simply going to winner takes all."

The IL congressional map is a joke. There is no representation in IL for independent and Republican voters. I live in southwestern suburban Cook County. I have zero representation. Mt congressmen are from Chicago, and the federal congressman is from the western suburbs. None of them even know where my town is.
