Travel to every state in the United States

Some people have Washington DC as one of their states on their goal list. That means they are missing an actual state. While DC is a big city and constitutes the national capitol, as well as have three electoral votes, it has no representation in the house or the senate and therefore does not constitue a state. It has no state government or legislature, it is merely a city that belongs to no state. Washington state is different from Washington DC they are seperated by about 2,500 miles and are on different ocean coasts. If you want to make your goal 50 states and DC, that’s fine, just don’t count DC as one of 50, it means your missing something.
