Unless I'm behind in the times think there is still only 50 states.I had heard years ago of talk of making Puerto Rico the 51 state but never gone beyond talking about it.
I remebered as a kid I had to memorized all 50 states..including the correct spelling and the order of which each state came into the union.

I googled Puerto Rico. Apparently it is officially "a commonwealth associated with the US" and they have "non-voting representatives" in our House and Senate. So it is not officially a state due to the fact that its citizens voted to remain a commonwealth rather than becoming a state.
