Clinton was a heavy favorite to win the territory's primary. In her two terms as United States Senator from New York, the state with the largest population of Puerto Rican-Americans, she gained a strong degree of familiarity with the island. Those connections helped her build institutional support from top Puerto Rico Democrats, including then-Governor Alejandro García Padilla.[1]
No other Democratic or Republican primaries took place on the same day. The Republican Party's Puerto Rico primary took place on March 6, 2016.
