Exercising futility Posted by Greg on June 2, 2008 Kos points out that only 16% of voters turned out in the Puerto Rico primary, then asks a question that has been stated more than once: For some bizarre reason, Puerto Rico has more delegates than 27 U.S. states. For a territory that has zero electoral votes in November to have a greater say than over half of the states in the United States isn’t just bizarre on the merits, but it’s also an insult to those 27 states. I’m all for Puerto Rican statehood, and hope to see it happen if the people of Puerto Rico so want it.
