Illinois Republicans Rail Against Democrat’s District Maps
Clip: 9/2/2021 | 10m 20sVideo has Closed Captions
Springfield Democrats advance new election maps. Republicans call the process a "charade."
Do you know what legislative district you live in? Either way - it might change soon as democrats have submitted new redistricting maps. This happens every ten years after the census of course, but because of late census numbers, this year's process has been more contentious than others. Republicans have decried the new versions and the process, calling it a "farce" and "a charade."
