6-2 map.
1. Trump+13
2.  Clinton+38
3.  Trump+13
4.  Clinton+52
5.  Trump+20
6.  Trump+15
7.  Trump+15
8.  Trump+17
Walker wins the 6 Trump districts too.  Vukmir wins 4. 
All Republican incumbents should be safe, and Rep Kind is not necessarily DOA, he overperforms by a lot, but a serious challenge in just a neutral year could be enough to defeat him.  After all, Walker won his district by 8 on this map.  Baldwin only won it by 5.

How permissible, or for that matter doable, would it be to combine Dane and Waukesha counties , of course including Jefferson as well? Those Three Counties would surely be well over the population of a single District, but County splits are apparently permissible. Just thinking out loud.
lol no.

Yeah, something like this would be better:



I like it in theory, but those blue and yellow districts appear seriously underpopulated.

EDIT: one could perhaps balance out the blue District somewhat my taking in more of South Milwaukee as the orange District appears somewhat overpopulated, but it appears that the district would probably have to take in most if not all of Walworth County to even out.

Just ignore the SE districts, I mainly wanted to show what you could do with WI-02 and then in return WI-03.
Driftless should be compact

An incumbent protection map.  Steil gets a Trump+12 seat and I draw Kind the bluest seat I could realistically draw without cracking Dane County.  It is now only Trump+2 and votes Dem in all the other elections there is data for on DRA.  D+2 CPVI (2012/2016).  While trends will probably eventually flip this seat, at least it gives Dems a fighting chance.  A fair map would move WI-1 left and WI-3 right but to protect incumbents I did the opposite.
