Sorry Mr. Scott Harper. You did your best, and should have no regrets. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.166.133.37 (talk) 18:34, 6 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Now better Gerrymandered to help Democrats and look like a snake.This needs revision! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ronwagn (talk • contribs) 19:44, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

"This district narrowly voted for George W. Bush" -- gotta be a better way to phrase that

It is not the same district as gerrymandered by the Democrat controlled legislature. They did the same thing to Congressman Schilling to get rid of him in his district.

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on Illinois's 13th congressional district. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

• Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20100423082228/http://bioguide.congress.gov/biosearch/biosearch.asp to http://bioguide.congress.gov/biosearch/biosearch.asp

When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Illinois's 13th congressional district's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 06:04, 27 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
