The 2010 census data for Arkansas has been rehashed all over the Internet, and it's no secret that the legislative districts will get larger in south and east Arkansas and smaller in northwest and the LR suburbs. Every legislator has an idea of what they want for an optimal district, and with technology today, you can plug in exactly what you'd like (ie, 52% Male, 55% of households voting in Republican primaries, etc, etc), and it will draw your district down to the street and household.
