LOUISIANA: in 2012, Rs packed Black voters in NOLA & Baton Rouge into one snakelike seat (#LA02 below), and dominate the other five. Dems view it as a blatant gerrymander, and now that they have the governorship, they'll have a seat at the redistricting table. 
Louisiana's population is 33% Black, and it's now possible to draw *two* fairly compact Black majority seats: #LA02 based in NOLA & another connecting Baton Rouge w/ Lafayette, Alexandria or even Monroe (#LA05 below). Expect Dems to fight/sue for this additional seat.
However, drawing a second Black majority district would likely also mean a dramatic reconfiguration of #LA05, where Julia Letlow (R) was just elected and enjoys plenty of bipartisan goodwill. This is where the politics could get complicated for Gov. John Bel Edwards (D) & others.

I refuse to believe that all of those districts are hopeless.
There are two brave women (@GwenCombs and @HaydenShamel) running in the deepest red Arkansas districts.
AR has 4 house seats.
They are all red.

These Dem candidates may be long shots to win those red seats.
So what?
It's not always about winning.
Sometimes, it's just about changing hearts and minds, even if it's just a few, so next election, they might vote blue.
