The Puerto Rico Democratic Presidential Primary Election allows Democrats in Puerto Rico to participate in the process of selecting the party’s nominee for the United States presidency. During this primary, registered Democratic voters in Puerto Rico cast their ballots for their preferred presidential candidates. The outcome of this primary determines how Puerto Rico’s delegates are distributed among the candidates at the Democratic National Convention. Though Puerto Ricans do not vote in the U.S. presidential general election, their involvement in the primary is crucial for allocating delegates who represent the island’s preferences, contributing to the overall delegate count needed by a candidate to secure the Democratic nomination. This process ensures that the voices of Puerto Rican Democrats are heard in the larger national discussion about who should lead the party in the presidential race.
