[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some people pretend or think this seat is actually meaningful or impactful. It’s not. Doesn’t matter who occupies it.[/quote] It matters. This person sits on committees and can be a strong voice against the opposition. A good candidate could be good for the Dem brand. Have you seen the new shadow Senator? He’s amazing and is building strong relationships with Senators who have power. DC needs a strong advocate for statehood because it WILL happen.[/quote] No one in Congress cares about DC unless it can be used to make or score political points. You wildly overestimate the influence (both current and potential) the non-voting DC Delegate has and these shadow senators have on Capitol Hill. And I hope you have other hopes and dreams in life because DC statehood ain’t happening for a very long time of ever. [/quote]
