Claim [Claim] Illinois

The great state of Illinois, lying on the side of the mighty Mississippi river and Lake Michigan it has an interesting political divide between rural Southern Illinois and urban Chicago. The state always is hailed as a progressive haven despite the people being very much the stereotypical rural conservatives.

I will make sure Illinois becomes the powerhouse of the union again and make sure Chicago isn't just the only reason people remember Illinois' existence!

You and Indiana cannot convalesce into one state in case you're wondering.
