The 2024 United States House of Representatives election in Puerto Rico to elect the Resident Commissioner of Puerto Rico were held on November 5, 2024. The election of the Resident Commissioner was held concurrently with the larger 2024 United States House of Representatives elections, the 2024 Puerto Rico gubernatorial election, and other U.S. federal and Puerto Rican general election races.
The Resident Commissioner of Puerto Rico is the only member of the United States House of Representatives who is elected every four years instead of a two-year term. The incumbent is Jenniffer González, a member of the New Progressive Party (PNP) and the Republican Party, who was re-elected with 41.2% of the vote in 2020. González is not seeking re-election in 2024, instead choosing to run for governor.[1]
The Popular Democratic Party of Puerto Rico nominated Pablo Hernández Rivera to seek the Resident Commissioner seat. He formed an exploratory bid in February 2023 but became the official nominee in May. Hernández is a Democrat and the grandson of the former governor of Puerto Rico Rafael Hernández Colón.[2]
The Puerto Rican Independence Party and Citizens' Victory Movement have formed an electoral alliance, with both parties agreeing to support current territorial senator Ana Irma Rivera Lassén; however, all parties are required to nominate a candidate for governor, so PIP nominated Dr. Roberto Velázquez.
The Puerto Rican Independence Party (PIP) and Citizens' Victory Movement (MVC) have formed an alliance for the 2024 elections. The Independence Party has agreed to support whoever wins the Citizens Victory Movement primary; however, they are still required to nominate a candidate of their own by law.
