I know you've been waiting all season long, but it's finally here, boys and girls!
This is only the proposed plan, of course, but I was too excited to unwrap it, so I just couldn't wait. More linkage:
• IL state Senate website with PDFs showing township names
• Writeup from Center Square Journal
• Another writeup from the Chicago Tribune
Please post more links in comments. And Merry Redistmas to all!
UPDATE: An award of the Order of Conspicuous Merit goes to longtime Swingnut sapelcovits, for putting together this chart of every representative's hometowns and where they'd wind up under this new map.
