They've been doing referendums on this for a long time.

Only 23% turnout though? I question the legitimacy of this outcome.


In any case, Puerto Rico should never become a state, in my opinion.

Because they have taken their economy into the tank and want the US tax payer to bail them out. Bottom line.

Tell them to try again when their state budget is running a surplus...

There's that.

And they don't speak English. that's a problem that needs fixed before we even discuss statehood.
