AW. but ole JB said in the EARLY days of his office that he would VETO any maps that made the districts “politically advantageous” And Chris koos don’t lie either!
Can we just send ALL these idiots and their cronies-Pritzker, koos, renner, matejka Carillo, and craybill off to some volcanic island?? The world WOULD be a better place and a LOT less corrupt. Take notice politicians! This is not just MY own personal feelings, but that of a LOT of people.
SANE LIVES MATTER!
Don’t you want to tell *us* in Bloomington-Normal how to vote, though? What goes around comes around. The town and city subsidize every single rural road, bridge, sewer, and law enforcement effort in the rest of the county, which is something you well know as someone who scrutinizes budgets, so don’t we have a right to more influence? I’d be more than happy to stop paying taxes to the county and the township in exchange for no representation there, but good luck funding anything without the very valuable parcels in Bloomington and Normal providing tax revenue with the value of farmland continuing to fall.
To “Townie,” the previous commenter: the governor has no authority to veto a county reapportionment. If a county fails to file a reapportionment plan by the deadline, the county’s commission will be elected entirely at large, with the number being the largest the county would be entitled to by population, which would be substantially worse for non-urban areas compared to anything the county would come up with now.
