Debate touches on the question of Puerto Rican statehood

[RZM]

12. I've heard the island would vote on it though

And if you combine people who like the status quo and those who want independence, you'd probably get over 50 percent. I assume Puerto Ricans living on the mainland could vote in that too, though I don't know what the criteria would be (being born there, how many ancestors born there, etc.) I also wonder how many of those people would vote for statehood. Probably a higher percentage than on the island, but I wonder if it would be all that much higher.

Of course, others here probably know way more about this than me and could correct me or shed further light on this.
