Re: Things you thought were common knowledge, but aren't?

Among US citizens, that DC citizens don't have a right to vote in federal elections.

Seriously, the number of people who have tried to tell me this... Do they think we go to the polls and then just take a match to the whole thing? That voting in DC is some kind of elaborate vanity project? That's not what the whole "taxation without representation" thing means at all.

Well that is not entirely true. DC citizens can vote in Presidential elections - and they do have a non voting delegate to the House of Representatives. But they don't have any Senators. (And then there is whole Federal oversight issue - but let's not go into that right now.)

I was surprised the learn that not everyone realizes that while DC is not a state - it does have some state functions - such as issuing government IDs.

Yes, but everything we get to vote for-- those votes count. We don't just vote for nothing.

I'm mostly just shocked by how many people think we don't get to vote for president. To me, that's such an absurd idea.
