Do you have the information of the distribution of counties in your districts etc.  Then we could work out how the new districts would vote?

I think the map would harm Boozman.  The Ozark GOP strongholds are for the most part cutout and replaced with politically traditional Arkansas counties.

Would all three Democrats be pretty safe in the others?

If this map was implemented, Arkansas could potentially have an all-Democratic Congressional delagation.

With Benton and Sebastian counties behind him, Boozman would definitely still have the edge in his district.  It would take something like a strong Democratic state senator from Washington County to unseat him.

On the other hand, Snyder might have trouble with the grey district.  It's hard to tell precisely on the map, but it looks as if you're leaving him with the conservative Little Rock suburbs but without urban Little Rock itself to counterbalance that.  He'll still have some Democratic strongholds in the east and south, but he'll face some competition in his reelection.

Assuming all states allocated their Electoral votes in the same way as Maine and Nebraska, Arkansas would have been the only 'Dixie' state not to have cast a single vote for Kerry. Then it occurred to me, that she has no African-American majority congressional districts

Leave the female pronouns to ships, such as the CSS Arkansas, please.
