RIP

White suburban women and opposing the choice of black leaders. Very common throughout American history.

I hate Democrats. Spineless cowards.
They are complicit through their “high ground” crap in the destruction of our country.

The Vast Majority of house Democrats including the minority ones still supported Madigan. Sadly for Madigan, white women from the suburbs have their own source of funding

The corruption is obviously something that Illinois could do without, but I do hope his successor follows his lead by not playing nice with redistricting.

Aside from that, this also marks the end of the career of one of the last old-fashioned white ethnic machine politicians.



Funnily enough Madigan's district is majority hispanic by now.

The IL Dems sans Madigan are still likely to give the Democrats a favorable congressional map.

The more important thing for IL Dem's is not the congressional map but change the judicial map.
