Same discovery as @MarqueeCrew, summarized the SpatialObjects to deal with the extra "piece" of New Mexico. I love when these "complex" problems have such streamlined solutions!

took a different approach than folk above

did it 2 ways just to check:
- the classic "isHole" flag

since the poly split tool creates a "Split is hole" field, you can use that to remove the holes:

Either filter out the holes, or combine them back together with a summimage.pngarize tool
