Does the district of columbia (DC) have a state capital?

Travel Tips
No. It is a city. Raleigh, NC doesn't have a capital. It IS the capital. Same thing.

They have taxation without representation on their license plates. Interesting. States get to send Senators and Reps to DC. DC isn't a state.
Others
The district of columbia is just that, a district. It isn't a state, so it has no state capital.
Regardless of what the constitution says, there's no question that we're being taxed by the federal government without representation in Congress.
No, because it's not a state. It's the capital city of the whole country. It's a special territory that was taken out of land from Maryland and Virginia (for a while) and made a federal territory.
