Dear John,
This summer, the Verifier team and I have added data for the five jurisdictions that often go unnoticed but make up part of our electorate — the U.S. territories of American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. While the U.S. territories do not have electoral votes to cast in the presidential election, their combined population is equivalent to that of the five least-populated U.S. states. They also have high turnout when voting in presidential primaries and elections for non-voting delegates to the U.S. Congress, in addition to elections for local government.
