In Congress, the trustee will vote according to their own political beliefs. The delegate, however, acts on behalf of the voters and votes in the manner indicated by them, regardless of whether it is what they personally want.
Have a look at CNN Politics.com, Election Center 2008 I took the explanation from there: A pledged delegate is elected or chosen on the state or local level with the understanding that they will support a particular candidate at the convention. However, pledged delegates are not actually bound to vote for the candidate. Consequently, candidates are allowed on a state-by-state basis to review the lists of delegates who have pledged their support and can delete anyone whose support they consider unreliable. Hope this helps Mora

Puerto Rico is represented by one elected delegate (Resident Commissioner) in the House of Representatives. This delegate has a vote in committees but at the present time the delegate does not have a vote in the committee of the whole (when the House takes a vote to pass a bill). Even when the delegates had the vote in the Committee of the whole, their vote could not be the deciding vote therefore the vote was ceremonial and meaningless. The delegate can introduce legislation and lobby and serves a 4 year term.
