A couple of comments on the maps of party changes in the Illinois legislature.
1. The Senate map is correct.
2. The House map has a few errors.
On the new map districts 42 and 48 swapped positions from the old map. There was not a swap in partisan representation. Old 42, now 48 had a GOP rep before, and has a GOP rep now. Old 48 now 42 likewise had a Dem rep before and has a Dem Rep now.
On the new map districts 83 and 50 are also swapped from the old map. So, it was 83 and not 50 that changed from a GOP rep to a Dem rep.
The result is that the Dems gained 6 and the GOP gained 1 - making the net result the same as the post.
I am guessing these maps were made by comparing lists of election results and not comparing the old/new maps themselves.
