I think we have a winner for "most boring redistricting process". Hawaii's reapportionment commission released this map:

...which extends the western border of HI-01 a bit. That's it.

McCain only won three precincts in the entire state, none of them contiguous, so really, really small.

It does in fact put her home in HI-01.

She lives in Ko Olina, which is added to HI-01.

Where politicians live has absolutely no effect on what district they run in, correct?

Correct, particularly in Hawaii; Ed Case, Patsy Mink, and Colleen Hanabusa have all represented districts they don't live in.

Maps approved with minor changes; some vague court challenge is possible, but this has, indeed, proved to be the most boring redistricting process in the country.
