Notes
The League of Women Voters of Illinois wants to change the law controlling the decennial legislative district redistricting process. Launching an "Illinois Fair Map Amendment" movement, the league is attempting to pass a citizens initiative to require the state's legislative districts be based on 2010 Census data.
