South Carolina Republicans rejected a rapid redistricting effort in a 26-18 state senate vote, defying Donald Trump's push to redraw congressional maps ahead of the 2022 midterms. The bid aimed to split Democratic Rep. Jim Clyburn's district, a move intended to boost GOP gerrymandering advantages.

South Carolina Republican lawmakers rejected a rapid redistricting effort aimed at reducing Democratic influence in Jim Clyburn’s congressional district ahead of the 2022 midterms.

South Carolina Republicans blocked a redistricting plan aimed at targeting Rep. Jim Clyburn, defying President Trump and killing GOP chances to flip the seat before 2028.

South Carolina Republicans defied President Donald Trump by defeating a proposal to redraw the state's congressional district map, which aimed to eliminate the only Democrat-dominated U.S. House seat. The move came after Trump warned on social media that he'd be watching closely. The setback makes it harder for South Carolina to join other southern states in altering their maps ahead of the midterms.

President Trump encouraged South Carolina Republicans to be bold and courageous ahead of a vote on redistricting. He referenced Tennessee Republicans who approved a new map that threatens to unseat the state's lone House Democrat. The vote is significant for the political landscape of South Carolina.
