Mmmhmm. Observer status only. You can vote for president, but you have no voting congressman. Cultural tidbit: If you're a resident of the D.C. area, and you live in Southern Maryland or Northern Virginia, be careful not to call yourself a Washingtonian. Residents will kinda frown at that. There's a perception that sometimes residents from the neighboring states will make it seem (unintentionally or not) that they're part of the city itself, without paying the cost of being an actual resident: No representation. Consider that as you will. I always thought it was yet another little quirk of what is a pretty unique city. (I'm from Northern Virginia. ;)
