Every Vote Counts

The right to vote, and to have one’s vote accurately and fairly counted, is a fundamental right of all American citizens — and one that underpins the rest of our civil liberties.

That’s why we are pushing back against attacks on voting rights by launching Every Vote Counts, a multi-year effort to amend Delaware's constitution, bring our state into the 21st century, and ensure Delaware becomes a beacon of democracy and strong voter engagement.

The campaign aims to:

1. Restore voting rights after felony incarceration,
2. Protect and expand early in-person and vote-by-mail, and
3. Implement same-day voter registration.

The ACLU of Delaware is proud to partner with the Delaware Voting Rights Coalition (DVRC) — Delaware's first statewide coalition of voting rights organizations and advocates. The DVRC empowers communities, especially communities of color, people who speak English as a second language, people involved in the justice system, people with disabilities, and young people, to identify and remedy barriers to the ballot box. The coalition is ready to work with legislators, local election officials, and the Department of Elections to make these reform recommendations a reality.
