[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1664044, member: 25884"] Sometimes I think that splitting off the DC area would be a good thing.... We would have 2 more democrats from there for Senate... but the electoral college would work to reflect the state better.... I have a question for anyone out there..... Just for conversations sake... if DC were to become a state.... and it got 2 senators.... and however many representatives.? based on population... how would that work for elections????? So many are democrat that are there... but all the ones in the gov't offices have to vote in their home states right???? So as a state, they would not qualify for as many electoral college numbers right? I mean, alot of them maintain an apt outside of DC but they can't vote there correct? So would that help us here in the state to get them off our "numbers" if the area around DC was a finite delineation???? So the numbers of the republican votes would swing Va for the repubs more likely.... how many electoral votes would we lose and how many would they pick up????? Might be beneficial to get them off our "rolls".... sure might help with the state budgets to get that high priced inflated area out of our budgets and off our backs and aggravations.... [/QUOTE]
