“Last Week Tonight” Gave Us an Update on The Voting Rights of Puerto Rico, Guam, American Samoa  (You Know, Those U.S. Territories)

John Oliver and his team at Last Week Tonight showed us again what we’re missing.

The voting rights of U.S. territories that, for some reason, have not reached statehood despite considerable populations isn’t necessarily, at first glance, something that is ripe for a comedy show. Yet, Oliver curates plenty of funny moments to get this very niche topic that’s rarely been discussed to show why he’s going to be at HBO for a very long time.

Watch it here.
