    This is a big fucking deal. For the 2nd time in 5 yrs Puerto Rico voted to become a State. This time overwhelmingly. http://thehill.com/homenews/news/337347-puerto-rico-votes-in-favor-of-statehood …

        Trump won't let it happen. They're too brown and don't make taco bowls.

        23% voter turnout and 300K votes less than in 2012 is not "overwhelmingly."

        Of the votes cast 97% were for statehood though.

        23% voter turnout? 77% did not care enough to even vote. Was the BFD sarcasm? Overwhelming? That was sarcasm, for sure, right?

        If you can show me where in Puerto Rican or American law it says that low voter turnout invalidates a referendum outcome, I'd appreciate it

        No. (And that was fucked up.) But it's an apples and oranges comparison. The situation in PR is way more complex.

        Congress is not gonna take seriously a non-binding referendum with a 23% voter turnout.

        Yes. That's why the turnout was lower than any other vote in history.

        They haven't acted on any of the results from all the referendums since 1967. It's a joke.
