Rhode Island and California shouldn't count either. Rhode Island is too small and California is part of Mexico.

dude ur pretty dumb. I even posted a link to a government website that has D.C listed as a freaking "state"

I guess when ur a lifer having the abilty to count stars on a flag is all u need.

I'm sorry, but there is no excuse for not knowing that DC isn't a state. They didn't put in the caveat that it isn't a state but has electoral votes because they thought that anyone who held citizenship and could read would be educated enough to know that.

Who says I don't know D.C isn't a state. Read my original post Mr. Lifer. I state that under the 50 state count everybody recognize that D.C is not counted as a state, but obviously this government website has them listed as a state.

Good luck with not knowing basics of your country. :beer:

funny way of saying ur wrong and apologizing

1. cKGunslinger was making fun of you in his post, spelling it that way.
2. I'll continue to make fun of you for having no idea of what a state is, the status of your nation's capitol and not figuring out that deal by the time you got to middle school.

Dear madeupfacts,
So some bureaucrat mislabeled a column heading with State instead of Electoral Unit or some such. I guarantee that bureaucrat knows the difference. Please don't parade such ignorance unless you have the excuse of not being a citizen. If you wish to become a citizen there are many government sites and local libraries that can direct you to information on becoming one.

If you are a citizen, run-do not walk to your nearest pawn shop and buy a gun. Then, proceed to your school and shoot anyone who ever allowed you to leave without learning something about the country you live in.

The last was a joke in case you are just naturally dumb. :)

How can you call anyone names when you consistently write that way? Aren't you ashamed of yourself?

We should declare war on DC

not a state as previously mentioned because it's a district.....mexico also has a district and 32 some odd states but i think they count their district as a state just for the heck of it.
