Additional Details[edit]

As I will be editing off and on, I do intend to eventually have a heading for each district in the 2018 elections. However I hope that some people would be willing to do more in-depth research. I will be focusing more on adding basic details and the election data rather than background. The 1st district definitely has some background to give, such as with Burke representing a district that has slowly shifted from an Eastern European background to latino, explaining his failure to be the nominee over Ortiz.

District Map References[edit]

I was thinking about either centralizing all the references to what city, town, and/or village a district covers towards this page or just referencing each district to its corresponding map and having this list as an external source of links.
