South Carolina Senate rejects Trump-backed redraw of House maps as early voting starts
TL;DR Summary
South Carolina's Senate rejected a GOP plan to cancel its congressional primaries and redraw seven House districts to help Republicans, saying it was too late to change the election. The push is part of Trump's broader redistricting effort ahead of the midterms. Separately, a federal court in Alabama blocked a Republican-drawn map for racial discrimination and ordered the continued use of a court-imposed map with two Black-majority districts, highlighting the nationwide, contentious redistricting battle as voters begin to cast ballots.
