Reactions[edit]
Rep. Wendy Brawley (D) said “The map we have before us from the House Judiciary Committee is highly gerrymandered. That has been determined. It highly protects — and, to the disadvantage of most Democrats and to the disadvantage of many minorities — it protects Republicans.”[7] Lynn Teague, vice president for the South Carolina League of Women Voters, said, “[The House map's] lack of competition is a very serious threat to representative democracy. General election votes become meaningless because the outcome is certain, or nearly so."[8]
Rep. Jay Jordan (R ) said, “The committee, before the — to go through the entire process worked very hard, traveling across the entire state, taking testimony, looking at all the different proposed maps. We worked very hard to make sure that was not the case, and I feel very comfortable in saying that was not the case.”[7] Senate Judiciary Committee chairman Luke Rankin (R) said, “Democrats: Be happy. Republicans: Don’t be greedy. This is a good plan.”[8]
How does redistricting in South Carolina work? In South Carolina, congressional and state legislative district boundaries are drawn by the state legislature. These lines are subject to veto by the governor.[9]
South Carolina's legislative redistricting committees adopted redistricting guidelines in 2011. These guidelines recommend that all congressional and state legislative districts be contiguous and "attempt to preserve communities of interest and cores of incumbents' existing districts." Further, the guidelines suggest that districts should "adhere to county, municipal, and voting precinct boundary lines." These guidelines may modified by the legislature at its discretion.[9]
