Welcome
to the Illinois Legislative Redistricting web site. The
redistricting process is vital to our democracy. The Supreme
Court requires that political districts should be drawn
to follow the constitutional mandate that provides equal
weight to every person's vote. The concept of "one person,
one vote" ensures equal representation for all citizens
and is the cornerstone of our democracy.
We
have developed this site in order to provide the public
with basic information about the process. Here you will
find information on public hearings, the redistricting timeline,
links to other related sites and much more.
This
web site also offers the public with an opportunity to provide
input and ask questions. I hope you find this web site informative
and helpful.
