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.
You say white supremacy like a bunch of latino men don't vote republican.
Lol no. There are no absolutes when humans are involved.
There is nothing christian about republican policies. Most Black folks are christian and vote dem in overwhelming numbers.
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.
