I saw this on the Indiana subreddit: an interactive legislative district map. Per u/Jelfff:
When the map opens the Indiana state house districts are displayed with semi-transparent coloring showing the party affiliation of the person holding the seat (red=R, blue=D). The data for the map is hosted on a GIS server operated by the state. I am *assuming* the data is current.
To change the map so it shows the Indiana state senate districts:
Click the basemap button (Next to the “Menu” button)
Look under the “Overlay” heading (mobile users scroll down)
Click the house layers to turn them off
Click the senate “fill” layer and then the senate “boundary” layer.
Seemed like the kind of thing that might interest readers of this site.
Thank you for this sharing this tool. The district maps appear to be current. I love the fact that you can click on a district and get representative names and contact information. However, this information is NOT up to date (for example, retired State Senator Long is still listed…). I hope it can be updated. I’m not clear on who produced this product (?)
It looks like the individual’s name is Joseph Elfelt. He provides “do it yourself” information on how to use this tool. So, if someone had the time and inclination, they could probably update this map or make a new one.
Doug,
I always appreciate reading your perspective.
Referencing the legislative district map, it is out of date.
Case in point: on 1/9/2020 – HD74 is indicating Lloyd Arnold, whom was replaced by Steven Bartelts back in Nov of 2017.

Thanks for flagging that. I wonder when the data is current to. I see that in HD 26 where I live, it doesn’t reflect the results of the 2018 election.
