Puerto Ricans have dual citizenship and vote in presidential elections, just like people from Guam and several other island territories. The Philippines used to be one but chose to be independent.

You know, I had forgotten that PR was a U.S. territory. My bad. Thanks for the correction.

Puerto Ricans (and Guamanians) can’t vote in US elections for Pres, Senate and Voting House members. They do have, by grace, non-voting members of the house, and the political parties (Both R and D, for 60+ years) give them small representation at party conventions. But they don’t have real voting rights, as they are not constituents of any of the United STATES
