The GOP-led South Carolina Senate voted down a measure that would have advanced a new congressional map. The vote brings to an end a last-minute redistricting effort in the state. 

President Donald Trump urged lawmakers to pass a redrawn map, which would have eliminated the state's single majority-Black district, NBC News reported. 

Earlier this month, Senate Republicans refused to take up the proposal as part of the regular session, showing reluctance to redraw the state's congressional districts. In the face of pressure from national Republicans and the White House, Gov. Henry McMaster called a special session for the Senate to consider the measure. 

The South Carolina House approved the map last week, and supporters hoped to have the new map in place for this year's midterm elections.
