Didn’t realized they closed this early; thanks!

[Georgia Girl 2]

I guess Amnestio is supposed to win this one.

[House Atreides]

I predict Rubio takes this one.

From @PatrickSvitek 52m52 minutes ago Austin, TX

First results arrive in Puerto Rico: With 1.4 percent of precincts reporting, it's @MarcoRubio 74.7%, @RealDonaldTrump 15.5%, @TedCruz 9.2%.

Not much drama on this one.

If you hurry, there's just enough time left to hit the beach and wait for the returns to come in.

[DoughtyOne]

Has Dubio been polling strongly there?

[SaveFerris]

Big surprise.

Offshore votes for the big (little) offshore guy.

[txrefugee]

Do these delegates get to vote at the convention?

[erkelly]

Yes

[PapaBear3625]

As far as I can tell, PR’s delegates are voting delegates.

[STARLIT]

That’s a good question.

[Theodore R.]

Yes, the PR delegates can vote in Cleveland and will do so if they arrange their transportation there at their own expense.

[Theodore R.]

PR party is strongly pro-establishment.

[tennmountainman]

PR will go tribal and vote for amnesty Rubio, a Hispanic brother.

[fireman15]

Lets see? Puerto Rico, a place where only 43% of working age adults actually have any kind of job... They have defaulted on their debt and are worse by every metric than Greece. Sounds like a good place for Marco to make his stand.

And, yet, Trump picks up more delegates, right? Proportional? Even if one or two.

[WENDLE]

Why is a foreign country that is broke and will never become a state voting for our nominee?
