Bankrupt Puerto Rico Votes for Statehood
By Douglas V. Gibbs

I have been against a bailout of Puerto Rico. Their economic conditions are of their own making, and a result of the fact that they have been under Democrat Party leadership. Perhaps, that was a part of the drive for voters to once again vote in favor of Puerto Rico becoming the 51st State of the United States of America. They voted in favor in 2012, but Congress ignored the vote because a large number of blank ballots made the American lawmakers feel that the drive for statehood was not an unequivocal vote in their opinion. So, here we are again in June of 2017, trying again. The voter turnout was among the lowest of any election, and the lowest of any election on the island since 1967but again the majority of the voters who turned out voted in favor of statehood.
Nonetheless, Puerto Rico’s Governor Ricardo Rossello has proudly announced that Puerto Rico has once again chosen statehood.
