Using the 2008 Data in IL I made a congressional district that was 99.5% Obama 0.4% McCain. 286,684 votes to 1,267. You could make an assembly district within that where it 99.9 to 0.1. Crazy margins, almost unbelievable.

In 2020 it was 95.6-3.7. 205k to 8k. Kind of illustrates the difference the small persuasion gains and turnout drops can have. 285k margin to 197k margin is quite a fall. 7 point swing right is small but also significant.

Must be Chicago's South or West side, right?
