Meet the Statewide Candidates

Thanks to the work that Delaware Democrats have done to expand and protect voting rights, our state's ballot box is more accessible than ever! Delaware voters can cast their vote in whatever way is most convenient for their lifestyle and busy schedule. Whether they're voting early or on Election Day, Delawareans can vote in this year's General Election (November 5, 2024) on their own terms.

Vote on Election Day, November 5

Delaware polls open at 7:00 am and close at 8:00 pm. Voters who are in line by 8:00 pm will be permitted to vote.

Election Day for the General Election is Tuesday, November 5.

To verify your assigned polling location and make your plan to vote visit ivote.de.gov.

Early Voting begins on October 25

Thanks to a recent State Supreme Court decision, Delawareans are able to cast their vote early in the 2024 General Election. Early Voting is a secure and convenient option for many working Delawareans, whose schedules may not align with Election Day. 

This November, with your help, Delaware Democrats have an opportunity to flip just two seats in the State House and protect Early Voting from future Republican-backed challenges.
