I had to look that one up.

It's interesting that some territories get to vote in the primaries but not the general. Well, not interesting... pernicious.

i wonder why "Americans Abroad" can vote in both primary and general, but Puerto Ricans living in Puerto Rico (that is, Americans living in US territory) can't. (Puerto Ricans CAN vote if they live in a state.)

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
