Assume Puerto Rican statehood could be fast tracked so as to bring it into play before the next set of elections in 2016 for both Congressional houses and the Presidency. Is there any reason to believe that it would tip any of those results one way or another and would it henceforth just become another Hawaii (but with more electoral votes and representatives) always voting massively democratic?
I think we'd see our first Green state.
You think completely wrong.
You know, Puerto Rico has elections now. They have rough equivalents of the Democratic and Republican Parties. No other party has broken through. I see no reason statehood would change that.
