UPDATED: Popular Democratic Party’s website down, back up, down again

In what is surely a prime example of the disinterested manner politicians in Puerto Rico handle online content, we have found today that the Popular Democratic Party’s website is down. When you try to access www.ppdpr.net a message from GoDaddy, the domain registrar appears indicating that the domain expired and is pending renewal or deletion.

The website in itself did not have much other than the daily press releases, but it remains an important tool that is often overlooked in political circles. This is a non-election year, but it doesn’t help to have your public relations status slowly dismantle, especially when leaders in your own party are complaining on how they are falling behind in the PR wars.

UPDATE: Nevermind, it’s back up. Maybe they are paying attention to it.

UPDATE 2:  The site appears to be down again.
