Puerto Ricans by birth have American citizenship and can move freely between the island and the U.S. mainland. But unlike Hawaii, Puerto Rico is not a state. That means it does not have voting power in Congress and its citizens can't vote for the U.S. president -- but they can vote in party primaries.Sep 26, 2017
