Remapped Illinois districts boost Simon in Democratic bid
The federal court redrew Illinois congressional lines, moving Hamilton and White counties into Rep. Paul Simon's district and shifting others to Dan Crane. Simon called the change favorable though modest, noting Bond County remains strong for him. The plan reduces cantonal districts from 24 to 22 and preserves minority representation in Chicago areas.
