Here's what I'd like to hear more about: regarding 4 #Arkansas #USHouse seats, can we avoid dividing Newton County, with just 8K residents, between 2 districts this time? #Gerrymandering #communityofinterest #poverty #ruralpoverty #persistentpoverty #rural #Ozarks #Census2021
For those just joining in: These are the latest numbers and they are derived from the actual redistricting data provided to the state on Thursday by the US Census Bureau. This chart was printed this (Tuesday) morning and displayed in a Fort Smith public hearing.

ERS defines high-poverty counties as those w/poverty rates of 20% or higher, based on 2014-18 data. Using this def, 34.7% of counties dependent on meatpacking-employment were high-poverty counties, compared w/ 26.2% in all other rural counties in the US. https://t.co/xXxvBNqt80
