Right now, it is uncertain. Puerto Rico is the most likely candidate for becoming the 51st state, however, the territory has had numerous occasions to do so already and has not voted on statehood. On November 6, Puerto Rico will have another referendum on statehood where it will vote on whether to stay a territory, become a state, or become independent. It is unlikely that Puerto Rico will vote for independence, so it really comes down to statehood or keeping the status quo. It is expected that Puerto Rico will vote to keep territorial status.
