Under Anderson County’s redistricting plans, which were recently approved by the United States Department of Justice, the White Plains precinct, which had traditionally been in the Sixth District, will be a split precinct. Under the approved plan, White Plains voters in the area bounded by Highways 8, 29, and I-85 will now vote in District Seven, which also includes Pelzer, West Pelzer and Williamston, as it has in the past.
