Well, she’s expected to win Puerto Rico’s primary, so she sees that as a source of Democrat votes.

But, would it take a constitutional amendment to allow PR to vote for President? The 23rd Amendment was passed to allow the District of Columbia to vote in presidential elections, so I figured the same might be needed for Puerto Rico.

I think that she's speaking in general terms that the U.S. citizens who reside in Puerto Rico should eventually, somehow, be allowed to vote in the U.S. Presidential elections, but not quite in the upcoming one.

Even if I reside in Puerto Rico, as a constitutional constructionist, I do not agree with granting the vote in Presidential elections to the U.S. Citizens of Puerto Rico without statehood or a Constitutional amendment.

Puerto Rico Ping! Please Freepmail me if you want on or off the list.
