Puerto Rico has voted against statehood every single time. The last time very few even bothered to turn up to vote.
Crying Chuck is talking through his nether regions when he keeps threatening to make Puerto Rico a state if Amy Barett is confirmed. He doesn't have the power to make Puerto Rico or anyone else state.
Actually, Congress and the Senate do have the power to make a territory a state, by a majority vote. The dems want to do so as they assume PR will elect two new Senators, both dems. They shouldn’t assume this.
