Puerto Rico delayed its Democratic presidential primary election for a second time as the COVID-19 pandemic continues.
The Democratic presidential primary election was originally scheduled for March 29.
Democratic Party leadership postponed the election until April 26.
Then on April 2, the Democratic presidential primary was postponed indefinitely.
However, the island’s Republican presidential primary, as well as two major local party primaries (the pro-statehood New Progressive Party and the left-leaning Popular Democratic Party) are scheduled for June 7.
