Support HB 215 to Help Increase Voter Turnout in Delaware!
House Bill 215 proposes aligning Delaware's statewide, county, and municipal primaries with the presidential primary, resulting in several key advantages. HB 215 passed in the Delaware State House 38-0, and is now being considered by the Delaware State Senate. We, the undersigned constituents, urge the Senate to vote for HB 215.
Why is this important?
HB 215 is likely to enhance voter turnout by leveraging the heightened interest around presidential elections to increase participation in local primaries. By streamlining the election process, the state will experience substantial cost savings. The reduced operational expenses will free up state resources that could be better invested in areas such as education and healthcare.
A single primary election day will simplify the voting process, eliminating confusion among voters and fostering a more inclusive voting experience. Importantly, for our overseas service members, it will ensure timely delivery of their ballots without the need for federal intervention. Furthermore, this consolidation of primaries will make the democratic process more accessible for all Delawareans, particularly working families.
We believe that our democracy thrives when every citizen's voice is heard. By supporting HB 215, you will help make our elections more efficient, inclusive, and democratic.
