Puerto Rico Voted for President, but Only Trump and Harris Were on the Ballot

For the first time, Puerto Rico voters voted for President in the general election this week. The ballot only listed Donald Trump and Kamala Harris. The tentative results: Harris 709,902; Trump 256,505.

Puerto Rico also voted for the seventh time on what its political status should be. Statehood won a majority, with 57% of the vote. The other choices were independence and independence in association with the United States.

Puerto Rico also elected a Governor, and Jenniffer Gonzalez, the pro-statehood candidate, appears to have won. Thanks to Darryl Perry for this news.

Puerto Rico Voted for President, but Only Trump and Harris Were on the Ballot — 24 Comments

  1. Why wasn’t Thomas W Jones on the ballot? He was the most pro Puerto Rico candidate. No one else promoted the island like him.

  2. The Jones supporters pushed hard for ballot access in Puerto Rico Guam and the Virgin Islands. Obviously corrupt regimes kept him off.

  3. 23rd Amendment needs to be repealed as well, along with many others.

  4. TRUMP ALSO TO ATTEMPT TO EXPEL ALL NON-EURO FOLKS FROM USA —-

    BLACKS / ASIANS / SOUTH OF BORDER FOLKS ???

  5. Gonzalez should offer to appoint 2 republican senators and 4 republican congressmen in exchange for immediate statehood.

  6. When states join the union, they elect their members of Congress in special elections. And no provision of the U.S. Constitution permits any Governor to appoint any member of the U.S. House, not even for the tiniest term.

  7. All of the territories should be given the option of independent association. Their status would become the equivalent of Micronesia, Marshall Islands, and Palau, which are technically independent. As individuals, they could be given the option of keeping, or not keeping, their US citizenship.

  8. We can’t just wait for Statehood! All votes from anywhere in the world should count immediately in US elections because they are all potential newcomers to the US and impacted by US policies!

  9. Coming straight outta Haiti
