Is Puerto Rico now a state of America?

Answer #1

I don’t believe so. At current I think there is a movement to make it one, but I am unaware of the details underlying this.

Answer #2

Alright sweet

Answer #3

They voted yesterday and it appears that the majority have voted to become a state. Now it would be up to the US Congress to decide. http://funadvice.com/r/16dsmbbqo15

Answer #4

Answer #5

Thats a beautiful island. Omg im Borrican and some of my family lives there. ohh and i dont know but it belongs to america.

Answer #6

lol! I am Boricua too. From Ponce. :) Yes, Puerto Rico is a commonwealth or territory of the USA. We get some benefits and are US citizens but can’t vote for President and have some limitations that US States have.

Answer #7

Wtf. Im Puerto Rican i didnt say i live there.. I live in Calli. how if my Parents voted?? Huh??

Answer #8

You are welcome. So this is what I think may happen. Congress is going to start working on it but not at first and then close to the next election they will see about making Puerto Rico a state so they can get the Puertorricans to vote for our next president. Right now, Puertorricans residing in the Island, can’t vote for president and since Puertorricans are mostly democrats, the next president will have another state with millions of residents that will vote for him.

Answer #9

I wasn’t talking about you or your situation, sorry if it seemed that way to you. I was just adding some random information about Puerto Rico. I don’t live there either.

Answer #10

Say if P.R does become a part of the states, does this mean that the American flag would have to be changed?

Answer #11

Yes. It will look different and odd. There are some designs floating around on the web.
