据两名熟悉筹划工作的州内消息人士透露,南卡罗来纳州共和党州长亨利·麦克马斯特预计将于周四下午召集州议会特别会议,讨论重新划分该州国会选区地图的事宜。
随着共和党人试图保住对美国众议院的控制权,全美两党领导人都在重新调整各自的国会选区地图,以期为己方政党赢得更多席位。
消息人士称,麦克马斯特预计将在州议会周四下午休会后召集此次特别会议。
尽管南卡罗来纳州参议院中有足够多的共和党议员阻挠周二推进重新划分选区的程序性动议,但在特别会议上,带有新国会选区地图的重新划分法案仅需简单多数票即可通过。
南卡罗来纳州州参议员汤姆·戴维斯是共和党人,他在周二投票反对了程序性议案,他表示将继续反对重新划分国会选区边界。
“南卡罗来纳州的选区地图在法律上站得住脚,我们的选举形势强劲,而此次提议的程序在宪法和实际层面上都站不住脚,”他在周三解释投票立场的电子邮件中说道。
南卡罗来纳州的初选原定于6月9日举行,但另有一项法案提议将初选推迟至8月。
南卡罗来纳州的共和党人预计将通过一项新地图,该地图将调整实力强劲的民主党众议员吉姆·克莱伯恩所在的选区,使该州全部7个选区都更有利于共和党候选人。
“我敦促大会按照美国和南卡罗来纳州的宪法以及人民的最佳利益完成工作,”麦克马斯特在周二投票结束后说道。
上个月最高法院作出裁决,收紧了《投票权法案》的适用范围,此后尽管初选临近,南部各州仍开始紧急重新划分选区。最高法院表示,路易斯安那州2021年实施的国会选区地图在重新划分该州投票边界以符合《投票权法案》第2条时,过度依赖种族因素。
最高法院的裁决是在路易斯安那州提前投票开始前几天作出的,当时该州已有4.5万张选票被退回。共和党州长杰夫·兰德里暂停了众议院初选,并召集特别会议重新划分该州的国会选区地图。
路易斯安那州参议院周三通过了一项新地图,该地图将使6个席位中的5个更有利于共和党。该地图接下来将提交参议院全院投票,但其中一名其选区将被拆分并入其他选区的民主党众议员发誓将反对这项议案。
此前一项司法裁决要求阿拉巴马州在2030年之前保留两个非裔占多数的选区,最高法院的命令叫停了该裁决,阿拉巴马州共和党州长凯·艾维于本周早些时候重新安排了该州第2、第6和第7国会选区的初选时间。原初选定于5月19日举行。
田纳西州共和党议员上周批准了一项新的国会选区地图,该地图将非裔占多数的城市孟菲斯及其所在的谢尔比县拆分为三个选区,此举将更有利于共和党。新地图将使该州全部9个国会选区都更有利于共和党候选人。

South Carolina’s Republican Gov. Henry McMaster is expected to call a special session of the state legislature on Thursday afternoon to address redrawing the state’s congressional map, according to two state sources familiar with the planning.
As Republicans seek to retain control of the U.S. House, leaders of both parties nationwide have sought to redraw their congressional maps to net more seats for their parties.
McMaster is expected to call for the session after the legislature adjourns Thursday afternoon, sources said.
While there were enough GOP holdouts in South Carolina’s Senate to prevent a procedural move to move forward with redistricting on Tuesday, a redistricting bill with a new congressional map will just need a simple majority vote in a special session.
South Carolina state Sen. Tom Davis, a Republican who voted against Tuesday’s procedural measure, said he will continue to oppose a redraw of the Congressional lines.
“South Carolina’s maps are legally sound, our electoral position is strong, and the process being proposed remains constitutionally and practically indefensible,” he said Wednesday in an email explaining his vote.
South Carolina’s primaries are scheduled to be held on June 9, though there is a separate bill that would move them to August.
Republicans in South Carolina are expected to pass a map that would alter powerful Democratic Rep. Jim Clyburn’s district, favoring GOP candidates in all seven districts in the state.
“I urge the General Assembly to finish its work according to the U.S. and South Carolina constitutions and the best interests of the people,” McMaster said after Tuesday’s vote.
Southern states began scrambling to redistrict despite looming primaries after the Supreme Court ruling last month that narrowed the Voting Rights Act. The court said the congressional map enacted in Louisiana in 2021 leaned too heavily on race when redrawing the state’s voting boundaries to comply with Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act.
The Supreme Court ruling was handed down days before early voting was set to start in Louisiana, where 45,000 ballots had already been returned. Republican Gov. Jeff Landry suspended the House primaries as he called a special session to redraw the state’s congressional map.
Louisiana’s state Senate advanced a map on Wednesday that would favor Republicans in five out of six seats. The map moves to the full Senate floor next, but one of the Democratic representatives whose district would be dissolved into several others vowed to fight the measure.
Alabama’s Republican Gov. Kay Ivey earlier this week rescheduled the primaries in the state’s 2nd, 6th and 7th Congressional Districts after the Supreme Court order halted a previous judicial ruling that had required the state to keep two majority Black districts until 2030. The primaries had been scheduled for May 19.
Tennessee’s Republican lawmakers last week approved a new congressional map that splits Memphis, a Black-majority city, and the county that encompasses it, Shelby, into three districts, a move that would favor Republicans. The new map would favor Republicans in all nine of the state’s congressional districts.
