Hi there,

"Democrats have a Senate problem."

That was the prescient reporting of Vox News late last year -- the outlet pointed out that the reason Republicans seem to keep control of the chamber no matter what is that the Senate itself is "biased 3 percentage points in the GOP's favor and systematically underweights the interests of nonwhite Americans."

Republicans currently hold 53 of the Senate's 100 seats. Even a landslide victory for Joe Biden might not change that in 2021. But by welcoming two new states -- the District of Columbia and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico -- Democrats could change the rules of the game and, according to Mitch McConnell, gain "four new Democratic senators in perpetuity."

Adding these two new states wouldn't just even the political odds -- it would also give representation to the millions of Americans who live in DC and Puerto Rico, and who pay federal taxes, but who don't currently have a proper voice in Congress. Americans are divided, however, on whether or not they support adding two more stars to the flag -- that's why we're reaching out to you now. Tell us your view:

Do you support statehood for DC and Puerto Rico?
