Caucus? Primary? Date?

What's the authoritative source for this? The Federal Election Commission reference as of February 29 2008 says that Puerto Rico is having a caucus on June 1 2008, and no primary. Wdfarmer (talk) 07:05, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I don't believe there is anything "authoritative" at this point. However, DemConWatch is a reputable source and claims PR will have a primary. Andareed (talk) 07:41, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Under Puerto Rico law, the event must be held on the first Sunday in June, but the original plan mistakenly listed the June 7 date, which is the first Sunday in June 2009, not 2008. (Seablade (talk) 03:41, 8 April 2008 (UTC))[reply]

Puerto Rico has more delegates at stake at its primary than 34 other states and territories, making it one of the biggest prizes of the remaining 10 contests. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Seablade (talk • contribs) 04:25, 8 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Puerto Rico Democratic Primary Polls

Tomorrow, a new poll will be published.

On the next 4 days, 3 polls will be published.

(Seablade (talk) 03:55, 28 May 2008 (UTC))[reply]

Will be on Puerto Rico (spanish) newspapers, the newspapers website are:

www.vocero.com - Tomorrow,

www.endi.com - Thursday or Friday

Research & Research - Friday or Saturday (the same company that perform the only one poll at this moment on Puerto Rico).

Can someone mention where they got the information for Pending 1,650 00.42% 0 Blank Ballots 1,071 00.28% 0 Provisional Ballot 1,178 00.28% 0 Also how can a ballot be blank, wouldnt that just not count if you had a blank ballet, I have never heard of a second category be formed for blank ballets. Also pending, what do you mean by pending, wouldn't that mean some ballots were not counted? I do believe the results are final. Last but not least, wouldnt provisional ballots be for someone?

I really dont understand these 3 categories in the Puerto Rico Democratic Party  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.253.249.55 (talk) 18:42, 2 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
