What if the Boundary States competed to annex DC?
Would that be legal or at all possible?
One would think the Republicans would be pushing to return DC to MD, and rescind the 3EV for DC, since they could claim credit for giving a majority black city Taxation with Representation, and eliminate 2 Democratic EV!
I guess the GOP hopes to someday revitalize the GOP in MD (They did win the guv race last year!)
It's pretty far down the list though Wink

Why does a state show an ability to do something to get representation? I don't get what you mean. What has North Dakota ever done?

I'm not sure what the qualifications were for statehood, but they had to meet certain standards of population and governance.  Today, DC has a population less than a congressional district would be allocated so IMHO is too small on that basis alone.  Make them a territory like Guam!
