A second problem is that the Twenty-third Amendment, ratified in 1961, grants "[t]he district constituting the seat of Government of the United States" the right to appoint electors to vote for president.

Slavery also arose as an issue. To mitigate these issues, and as part of a "deal" regarding abolishment of slave trading in the District, in 1846, the U.S. Congress passed a bill retroceding to Virginia the area south of the Potomac River, which was known as Alexandria County. That area now forms all of Arlington County (which was renamed from Alexandria County in 1922) and a portion of the independent city of Alexandria.
