since you last voted…
Since 2020, voting has gotten a little bit easier in Delaware.
When registering to vote…
- Delaware now has automatic voter registration.
- Mailed voter registration applications need to be received by Election Day, not just postmarked – so get them in a couple days earlier.
But wait, I thought I heard something about mail-in voting for all voters and same-day voter registration.
You’re right, Delaware did pass a law allowing no-excuse mail in voting and same-day registration. However, that law was struck down on October 6th. If you are not registered, you will need to get registered by October 15th. If you requested a mail-in ballot, you will need to find another way to vote. Some individuals still qualify to vote absentee by mail.
