JULY 9, 2020: Twenty-four percent (24%) of voters nationwide favor granting statehood ([link removed]) to Washington, D.C. ([link removed]) A Scott Rasmussen ([link removed]) national survey found that 49% preferred giving some of the land in D.C. back to Virginia ([link removed]) and Maryland ([link removed]) . That would give residents of the city voting rights while still preventing any one state from having an unfair advantage over the others. Twenty-seven percent (27%) are not sure which approach is better.[1] ([link removed])
Very liberal voters—by a 43% to 32% margin—favor D.C. statehood over the alternative. However, in every other measured demographic group, more voters supported returning the land to Virginia and Maryland. Black voters were nearly evenly divided (38% prefer giving the land back, 35% would rather see D.C. statehood).[1] ([link removed])
The survey found that just 46% of voters don't believe it's fair for D.C. residents to lack a voting representative in Congress ([link removed]) .[1] ([link removed])
