    During the escalating political battle for chief executive in Puerto Rico, globally acclaimed Bad Bunny is vigorously encouraging the residents of the island to exercise their franchise. With a special nod to his followers, the musical phenom is presenting alluring incentives for electoral participation, notably in conjunction with his imminent live gigs.

    When November 5, 2024, arrives, Puerto Ricans will embark on a trip to the polls to select their next governor. Previously, on June 2, primary elections took place to determine the leading contenders for each political faction. Advocating for the Popular Democratic Party is Jesús Manuel Ortiz, whereas Jenniffer González-Colón prevailed against the current governor Pedro Pierluisi, securing the New Progressive Party’s endorsement. They face opposition from the Citizen’s Victory Movement’s Javier Cordova Iturregui, Project Dignity’s Javier Jiménez Pérez, and Juan Dalmau Ramírez from the Puerto Rican Independence Party.

    This week, Bad Bunny’s eagerly awaited Most Wanted Tour lands on his native soil. He’s set to enrapture fans with three exhilarating performances on June 7, 8, and 9 at the Coliseo de Puerto Rico. Devotees lacking tickets for these soirees can still engage through a cinema broadcast of the tour’s initial two shows at Caribbean Cinemas, which includes an exclusive Bad Bunny documentary.

    For today only, Caribbean Cinemas box offices provide a special 2-for-1 ticket offer to individuals presenting their voting credentials. Bad Bunny has christened this campaign “Sácala y Perrea,” with the aspiration of propelling Puerto Ricans to participate in their critical regional elections.

    Throughout his distinguished career, Bad Bunny has persistently used his potent clout to bolster the voter pool in Puerto Rico. In the previous gubernatorial election of 2020, he uploaded a photo of his voter ID card captioned with, “Take it out and make it count!” He was also seen performing his civic duty while dressed in a Lady Gaga Chromatica t-shirt. The year prior, he joined the masses demonstrating against then governor Ricardo Rosselló, who was embroiled in scandal and ultimately resigned.
