My dad always says he's undefeated at tailgating

Maybe it's not I who doesn't know what he's talking about

The House voted 238-180 today to grant DC statehood. It'll never make it past the Senate but this is still huge. First time either house has voted in favor of statehood for DC.

Florida was also voted out of statehood.

  So the newly created state and its capital would be coterminous?    (I just wanted to use that word)

Possibly. It's a moot point given that the Senate will block it and if it somehow got through, Trump would veto the bill. They'd be handing two Senate seats over to the Democrats.

Just make Long Island a state to balance it out.

NYC plus Nassau and Suffolk minus Staten Island and you've got a deal.
