Puerto Rico status referendum - June 11

Is there any polling data on this?

So you think they'll vote for independence? Because they're certainly not content with the status quo

It says "we can expect 500k+ votes," which seems shockingly low to me.

You really think an issue this massive should be decided based off a non-binding referendum that 22% of the voters participated in and even less voted yes for?

I know Democrats are desperate for ways to make poor whites irrelevant, but this is just sad.

Why is turnout an issue for this, but never anything else in this country?

Anti-statehooders claim that the referendum was meant to be non-binding, and argue that for a referendum (as opposed to an election for an office) should have high turnout due to the fact that it is not something that can be "undone" in a future election.

Well, they should have voted then.
