Arkansas's 4th congressional district is a congressional district located in the southwestern portion of the U.S. state of Arkansas. Notable towns in the district include Camden, Hope, Hot Springs, Magnolia, Pine Bluff, and Texarkana.
The district is currently represented by Republican Bruce Westerman. With a Cook Partisan Voting Index rating of R+20, it is the second most Republican district in Arkansas, a state with an all-Republican congressional delegation.
Historically, the district has supported conservative Democrats such as Mike Ross and David Pryor, and was reckoned as a classic Yellow Dog Democrat district. However, the growing Republican trend in the state has overtaken the district since the start of the 21st century with the district supporting George W. Bush with 51% in 2004 and support grew as John McCain won the district in 2008 with 58% of the vote.
The 4th congressional district consists of the entirety of the following counties, with the exception of Pulaski County, which it shares with the 1st and 2nd districts. Pulaski County municipalities within the 4th district include portions of Little Rock (shared with the 2nd district) and the entirety of Hensley, Landmark, Sweet Home, Woodson, and Wrightsville.
