Yes, but there shouldn't be any deals. PR, DC, and Guam should be states regardless of how they'll vote. All Americans deserve to be represented in Congress and to vote for president. Arrangements should be made for the rest of the territories too.

And I would admit any Canadian province as a state, regardless of how it would vote, as well, assuming the people there legitimately wanted it.

Kind of? But Puerto Rico has yet to demonstrate it wants statehood.
Puerto Rico has had two referendums in the past decade, both with statehood winning.
Neither referendum had a majority of voters favoring statehood thanks to boycotts of those nonbinding referendums by opponents.
That's their own fault. In the Developed World, you don't get to boycott an election and then claim it doesn't count.

If Trump knows he's about to lose and tells his supporters not to vote, and then claims the resulting Democratic landslide isn't valid, should we listen?
