Why do U.S. protectorates (like Puerto Rico) vote in Presidential Elections?

Asked by ketoneus (1169points) September 24th, 2007

Why do protectorates like Guam and Puerto Rico vote in national elections? They do not have representation in Congress or representatives in the electoral college. So, why do they even vote?
