Illinois Redistricting: Election results by new congressional districts The General Assembly, as alluded above, also made a few changes to the map downstate from the first version released last week, shifting around a few precincts in Bond, Champaign, Ford, Madison, McLean, Sangamon, and Stark Counties. The biggest changes were to include more of Urbana and Normal, and also to approach Springfield from the south instead of the north. This change boosts IL-13 from 54.2% to 54.6%. In exchange, the 13th drops part of Collinsville, which we understand to shift IL-19 incumbent John Shimkus into the new 15th (while the addition of more of Urbana moves IL-15 incumbent Tim Johnson into the new 13th).
