message: All I want to do is find out which district is my own. Why is this so hard to find anywhere? I would think all states would have a page where you could plug in your town and it would tell you your district and the representatives.
Can anyone put something like this up on the page?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.250.156.2 (talk) 17:31, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

message: The Illinois Senate currently elects one of its own members as 'President of the Senate' Prior to 1970, the Lieutenant Governor acted as presiding officer with a tie-breaking vote.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.212.80.149 (talk) 21:27, 12 November 2013 (UTC)

message: Is 39–20 a "supermajority" for Illinois purposes?  It isn't for Federal purposes, that would be two-thirds, but in many states it is in fact three-fifths, but I really don't know about Illinois (that's why I look stuff up on Wikipedia).  If the current Democratic majority is functioning as a supermajority because it is over three-fifths, this should be explained; if this is dated due to the current makeup not being reflected and this is a pre-election relic, then it needs to be updated by a knowledgeable person.  2600:1004:B164:42C:48C2:1602:1841:F9D9 (talk) 02:32, 13 April 2015 (UTC)

message: Congratulations on having this article make it to today's listing on the "Did You Know..." section of Wikipedia Main Page.  The process of making it the listing takes a bit of effort and involves the quick cooperation of many editors.  All involved deserve recognition, appreciation, thanks and applause.

thread_title:  Congratulations 

message: Since no one had made them, I decided to edit this page to reflect the new members and seats that each party holds. I also changed the members of the Illinois senate template at the bottom to reflect the 100th assembly.
I just want to make sure...
Are all of my edits correct? Are the numbers in the party summary table correct?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Patriotsontop (talk • contribs) 04:35, 13 November 2016 (UTC)
