Redistricting Battles Heat Up in South

Redistricting battles intensify in the South, with South Carolina lawmakers pushing to redraw their congressional districts amid a heated debate at the State House. Protesters were removed, and even Republican leaders are divided on the potential impact on November elections. Senate Majority Leader Shane Massey aims to protect GOP seats nationwide by sticking with the current setup. In Georgia, U.S. Rep. Buddy Carter supports a recent Supreme Court ruling against race-based district lines, while Savannah Mayor Van Johnson emphasizes the importance of fair maps for communities. South Carolinas legislative session is nearing its end, with any further redistricting work likely requiring a special session called by the governor. These map fights are setting the stage for significant power plays in upcoming elections. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
