Potentially. Puerto Rico is also a religious state.
Religious doesn't MEAN republican, just so happens to be one of the things that usually indicates a Republican.
I know plenty of smart religious people who are democrats. Most of the draw for the US is Christian nationalism (aka white supremacy) that I think won't work on most in PR.
There is nothing christian about republican policies. Most Black folks are christian and vote dem in overwhelming numbers.
You say white supremacy like a bunch of latino men don't vote republican.
Lol no. There are no absolutes when humans are involved.
Most latinos are religious, or from religious areas, and, I would wager, most are pretty conservative in a lot of ways. However they, as a majority, go for the democratic party.
