Republicans will NEVER accept DC or Puerto Rico as a state.
They know they would never win there

Its already fixed against them.

D.C. does not deserve to be a state. If Maryland will have them, the residents of D.C. should vote to be a part of Maryland. Issue solved.

DC should have the same as the other 50 states... a vote in Congress.

DC is a city, not a state.

A city is represented by two Senators and at least one Congressman.

DC is not. They can vote for President but are not represented in Congress.

Their population is larger than many states

Doesn't matter. It's a district where the nation's capitol is. People who live there CHOOSE to live there to be closer to the center of power. It should not become a state.

The top 10 or more states with the smallest land masses are all Prog Senators and near all prog Reps.

RW nailed it with taxation w/o representation. Still US citizens and that can't be denied.
I think the fact that the population is mostly non-white may be why you don't give a rat's ass. Si?

Is Washington D.C. considered a state?

Answer (1 of 100): Washington, D.C, is our capital and cannot be a state. But why? Ever wonder what “D.C” stands for? I did.. when I was, like, 13. It means “District of Columbia”. It’s a district. It was never meant to be a state. Why did we let this happen? Well, it was actually the decisio...

Voting rights of citizens in the District of Columbia differ from the rights of citizens in each of the 50 U.S. states. The Constitution grants each state voting representation in both houses of the United States Congress. As the federal capital, the District of Columbia is a special federal district, not a state, and therefore does not have voting representation in Congress. The Constitution grants Congress exclusive jurisdiction over the District in "all cases whatsoever".
