Democratic gerrymander for South Carolina:



SC-1 (Blue) - Safe R
60-40 McCain

SC-2 (Green) - Likely D
55-44 Obama

SC-3 (Purple) - Likely D
55-44 McCain

SC-4 (Red) - Toss-Up
52-47 Obama

SC-5 (Yellow) - Likely D
54-47 Obama

SC-6 (Teal) - Safe R
69-29 McCain
*This one would probably have some legal challenges, as the population deviates 63,845

SC-7 (Grey) - Safe R
67-32 McCain
*This one would also have problems (-58,837 deviation)

I've been working on a Democratic gerrymander that would have reasonable deviation levels, but it is far from finished.  I'll post it when it is done.

I realize that as far as DRA is concerned your MD-8 districts are contiguous, but I wouldn't call them that. Nor would I call MD-6 or MD-7 in your Democratic gerrymander contiguous.  Except at the Chesapeake Bay Bridge east of Annapolis, drawing a district divided between the Eastern and Western Shores is not what I would call contiguous for Maryland.

For a similar reason, your VA-3 in your Republican gerrymander is not contiguous.
