The District of Columbia (DC) is a separate Federal area not included in any state. However, it is not a state and is essentially one large city, with a mayor and city council. It does not have voting representation in Congress, but does have one non-voting delegate. However, the District residents were granted the right to vote in Presidential elections in 1961, and as of 2011, DC has 3 electoral votes.
The cities of Washington and Georgetown were consolidated into the single Washington city government in 1871.
