South Carolina U.S. Rep. Jim Clyburn lauded state leaders who rejected a Trump-endorsed redistricting plan to end his decades-long run in Congress in a public appearance just hours after the deciding vote.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Democrat held an event promoting his new book alongside former Charlotte Mayor Harvey Gantt at First Baptist Church – West Tuesday evening.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Clyburn appeared in Charlotte the same day the South Carolina Senate failed to advance a redistricting plan that would\u2019ve drawn the veteran congressman out of his seat. He is the only Democrat in the state\u2019s congressional delegation.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Republican Gov. Henry McMaster called a special session for the legislature to reconsider a redistricting plan pushed by the Trump administration, hoping to pass the bill in a narrow window before upcoming primary elections. The move was part of a nationwide campaign to redraw congressional districts ahead of the November elections.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Opponents encouraged voters to head to the polls Tuesday, the first day of early voting, based on the theory that the more votes were cast before a decision, the easier it would be to challenge the redistricting plan in court if it passed. Voters set a single-day early turnout record by lunchtime.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The GOP-led state Senate ultimately rejected the plan Tuesday afternoon after a dozen Republicans sided with Democrats.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cSouth Carolina citizens are going to the polls today. And neither my conscience or common sense is going to let me stop an election that is already underway,\u201d Republican state Sen. Richard Cash said.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Speaking to reporters ahead of his Charlotte event, Clyburn celebrated the Senate\u2019s decision, which he said will help preserve African-American representation from the state.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cThe vote today reflected what South Carolinians would like to see, and that is a constitutional process,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Clyburn, who voted earlier in the day in Orangeburg, South Carolina, said the record-setting turnout at the polls was a testament to the \u201canger\u201d voters felt toward the proposed redistricting process.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t know if I\u2019ve ever seen voters as animated as I saw them today,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The redistricting push came from the Trump administration rather than within South Carolina, according to Clyburn, something the Democrat said Republicans told him frustrated them.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cSouth Carolinians don\u2019t like that too much,\u201d he said<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Clyburn predicted recent events will have a \u201ctremendous impact\u201d on his relationship with McMaster despite their working together in the past.<\/p>\n
