For reference: South Carolina is about 60/40 with Republican advantage. They currently hold 6/7 house seats. In other words they hold 86% of the seats with 60% of the vote. This proposal would give them merely 70% of the seats with 60% of the vote. The closest split would be 4/7 which is 57% of the seats.
There is one blue district in the state, which includes parts of both Columbia and Charleston. The rest of Columbia’s and Charleston’s populations are split among four other congressional districts.
