    1. Of the 4 territories and DC, only Puerto Rico is populous and influential enough to warrant giving it 2 votes in the Senate, and neither Puerto Ricans nor Americans have any desire see that happen.

    2. The rapid onset of the North American Union render the question moot.

    3. The real question is how many of the existing States will secede rather than be apart of the North American Union.

    • Answer to 3. none. the Civil War once and for all proved that states cannot secede. Also DC has the needed Population to be a state.
