Baltimore does not have much political power in Annapolis, at least not proportional to its portion of the Maryland population/economy. But you are correct that one of the main reasons that MD doesn’t want DC is because politicians from the rest of the state think that Moco and PG already have too much power as is, and this would just increase it.

If we look at who is been gov it generally has been Baltimore or PG for (D) govs which is most of them. As that is the most important office in MD that is why I say Baltimore doesn't really want DC to be part of MD.

They it really would make Baltimore even less important. I wasn't saying that Baltimore has all the power, I'm saying they really don't want to have almost none and be even more ignored.
