Puerto Rico is an unincorporated territory of the United States in the Caribbean since 1898. The island's residents have American citizenship, but cannot vote in presidential elections. However, the Puerto Rican diaspora in the United States has the right to vote. The island has held several status referendums, in which residents voted for Puerto Rico to become the 51st state of the United States.
