Illinois Legislators Move Primary Date

Amanda Vinicky | June 1, 2021 8:09 am (WTTW News) Illinois’ primary date next year is moving, from March 15 to June 28 – a move that gives candidates for the U.S. House time to organize their campaigns and petition drives, given that legislators will not finalize a new map of Congressional districts until fall. Thanks to our sponsors: Without the change, Congressional candidates wouldn’t have enough time to complete the cumbersome task of submitting petitions to get on the 2022 ballot by Nov. 22.

New Legislative Maps Approved Without GOP Approval

WBGZ Radio 5/31/2021 | By Kevin Bessler - Illinois Radio Network Democrats released revised legislative maps Thursday evening and approved them the next night without any support from Republicans, who criticized the data used to draw the maps and the process by which the legislative districts were drawn. Last Friday, Democrats released draft legislative boundaries, but no data to back up how the lines were drawn. They held several hearings where community groups demanded the data be released. Early Friday morning, the amendments to the bills that contained the updated maps were filed and for the first time so was the data used to draft the boundaries. Hastily-called hearings were held where multiple community groups said they had as little as ten minutes of notice.
