Arkansas
Racial Representation Of Arkansas' voting population of 921,781, roughly 15.6% are black and 3.3% are Latino.  None of Arkansas' four congressional districts allow for a racial minority to carry the vote, and there currently are no black or Latino representatives.  Black voters in a combined super district supporting a candidate with crossover appeal could, with white and other racial minority voters, elect a candidate of choice.
Political Analysis In the 2000 Presidential election, George W. Bush carried Arkansas with 51.3% of the popular vote over Al Gore's 45.9%.   The state's Democratic partisanship is 47.5%.  Currently in Arkansas there are three Democrats and one Republican in the U.S. House of Representatives; under the proposed super districting plan, voters would likely elect two Democrats and two Republicans.
