OTL 2016 had Hilary taking 90.86% of the vote in Washington DC, Donald Trump took 4.09%, Gary Johnson 1.6% and Jill Stein 1.4%. It is not out of the question that Trump may finish third in Washington DC in 2020 (and still win the election).
Challenge: With a POD after 1950 have the following
1) The Citizens of the area of Washington DC get Electoral Votes in the US Presidential Election
2) In 2016/2020, each party's percentage of the vote in DC should be within 7% of the nationwide vote.
For #1, the current situation, DC Statehood or significant retrocession to either Maryland or Virginia is fine.
In the 2016 election, that would place them somewhere between Iowa and Oregon more or less.
Presumably this would be done by the parties ending up with different alliances, but I'll take odder.
