That's what I love about Illinois. Those types of maps show the sheer power of Cook County. Democrats don't have to win any other county in the state, but if they run up their margins in Cook, it'll be a close race, and they can win. It's fascinating to look at.

This was a pretty dumb question...

Mid/South Illinois should be detached and attached to Indiana.  It's a shame for the rural people of Illinois to be drown out by Cook County

You mean just like people in Atlanta are drowned out by the good ol folks in the rest of the state?
