Is North Dakota a State?

Technically, if North Dakota were not a State then it would revert to its previous status as an organized incorporated Territory, so the Dakota Territorial Militia wouldn't be in control of the nukes.

If North Dakota was not a state they would lose their two senators and their representation in the House... but would no longer pay Federal Income tax.....

I wonder if it was put to a referendum which option they would choose... statehood... or no income tax?

Actually, that would not be the case.  The non-payment of Federal income tax by residents of the territories is by law, not the constitution and the Internal Revenue Code names the territories it applies to by name and not surprisingly the Territory of Dakota is not among those named, nor is Wake Island, Palmyra Island, or any of other minor outlying island possessions of the United States.
