Maryland is already almost impossible for Republicans, they can’t handle having DC too, there would be zero hope of ever electing a decent Governor. We can’t do that to them.
Of course they cannot be a state either, we cannot allow 2 more rat Senators.
Freeper Auho2orepublican has suggested the creation of a new state with DC and it’s liberal suburbs in both MD and VA, that would make those states more Republican to make up for making a new democrat state.
That is not being considered by anyone, unless it is DC must stay as it currently is, a Federal district with no voting rights in Congress. Too bad so sad, I don’t really care about a few hundred thousand democrats not having representation, as a Republican in Chicago I don’t have any either.
With all the votes they steal across the country it’s perfectly justifiable to deny them voting rights in DC. I would have strongly opposed giving them 3 electoral votes for President. God forbid that should ever be the difference in an election.
The District isn’t too big to begin with. They wouldn’t alter Maryland politics in a major way. Virginia would go blue for all eternity. DC was carved out of Maryland, give it back to Maryland and let those leftists carry the tax burden for the socialists that live there
For those who haven’t read it, here’s my seven-year-old post on creating a State of New Columbia that combines DC and its liberal suburbs in Va and MD. http://auh2orepublican.blogspot.com/2005/08/fair-and-reasonable-alternative-to-dc.html?m=1
If I were to rewrite it today, I would add Charles County, MD, and maybe Prince William County, VA, to the new state.
