In the 1970s/1980s the black population of DC was around 70%. Currently it is now down to about 50%. However, so far as Congress is concerned since the vote is over 90% Democrat, fairness will not enter into Congressional decisions re DC. DC has 3 electoral votes, recent local Republican activity has been to promote DC’s becoming a territory, thus paying no taxes. This would make the 1% very happy as well as big developers and the politicians they pay off (who are almost all Democrats).
Once again, thanks for the information.
I have known about this type of thing in the D. of C., but haven’t bothered to study it.
Good refresher for sure...
