Abstract

In Puerto Rico's governor race, third-party candidate Juan Dalmau has gained support by promising to end tax breaks for wealthy newcomers to the island. He is now in a statistical tie with Jenniffer Gonzalez, the candidate from the ruling New Progressive Party. Dalmau's proposals for tax and energy reforms have resonated with voters frustrated with the island's two-party system. If elected, Dalmau's victory would mark a significant shift in Puerto Rican politics, as his party advocates for the territory's full independence from the US. [Extracted from the article]
