Star and Stripes

Well it didn't get settled in Texas or Ohio. The quest for the Democrat party endorsement lives on. This morning I turned on the news to hear the results of yesterday's primary/ caucuses. The commentator remarked that this could go on possibly until June and might be settled when they voted in Puerto Rico! Who knew? Puerto Rico votes? I must confess ignorance. I knew the dollars from the US flowed that direction but I didn't realize they voted.
The 2000 election was settled by 537 votes in Florida. How do you think the voters would react if it came down to who they chose to run in Puerto Rico? They could be deciding who the Democrat candidate is. Wonder if they have paper ballots with the possibility of hanging chads..... One thing, this election has it's entertaining side. Wonder if the two top contenders are brushing up on their Spanish. After stumping in snowy, cold, Ohio campaigning in Puerto Rico might be appealing.
