Well, to start with, this isn’t the actual song lyrics, it’s playing off them.
However, in West Side Story, the character is a Puerto Rican living in the mainland US, so she would have been eligible to vote.
The original song has a lot of sarcastic banter, and celebrates and criticizes life in both Puerto Rico and New York.
Love me some Rita Moreno, in everything she did!

Now go vote if you haven’t already.
witch please, don’t assumption me, i voted weeks ago.
you behind the curve.
I said “if you haven’t already.” Good for you. I sent mine in too, all six pages and blue down the line. While you were down voting and commenting, I added a video clip that’s not linked to Amazon. You can watch, and then read the meme lyrics in the same voice.
boo, get out of here, justifying your negative presumptions.
have a nice day though.
lol u went from “I don’t understand how voting votes?” to “I already voted and I’ll get the last word dammit” in like 4 comments so ok Varys
nah, My question was about West side story, but i was correcting voting procedure in my first comment:
“us territories like PR can’t vote.”
their response was the straw man of “but if they moved to the US they can vote” which…yea, not a great answer, but I didn’t want to call them out for a non-answer misdirect redundancy.
when they toss further pedantic assumptions at me?
I’ll break it down.
