Ethnicity totals greater than 100%

Maybe I'm being stupid, but could someone explain this particular ethnicity breakdown? Because it makes no sense: 57.9% White, 3.9% Black, 2.3% Asian, 71.8% Hispanic, 0.2% Native American, 33.1% other 82.9.33.18 (talk) 17:59, 7 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Many Hispanics are White. It may be the possible explanation. But I can't be sure. They should write Non-Hispanic White. 49.200.118.122 (talk) 15:37, 3 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Looking at the US Census Data for the district, the Hispanic identification is a separate question than the racial identification. The percentages in this entry appear to be correct, but they aren't directly related to each other. I am not sure how to fix this, as it appears to be a congressional district template of some sort, and I am hesitant to try anything to separate the different categories. Perhaps we need to remove the percentages for the Hispanic question from the chart and create a new paragraph in the text section, if there isn't a way to distinguish between them in the chart.

Citation needed

"today the 4th congressional district is one of the most Democratic in the nation"

According to what parameter measured by who? This sounds extremely biased. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.126.160.98 (talk) 22:54, 19 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in Illinois's 4th congressional district

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 4th 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 ⚡ 11:18, 30 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
