What's the word on the street about the referendum regarding statehood for Puerto Rico? Does anybody who's reading this thread know?
From what I have gathered in conversation with my family on the island the last poll published two days ago puts the result at around 50% pro statehood.
So, same as last time, then.
Do you think Congress will let it go through this time if the vote is yes?
I don’t know. Maybe if DC is made a state as well, judging by past precedent.
