ACLU of Delaware v. Town of Fenwick Island

Voting is for the people. Not corporations.

On December 4, 2025, the ACLU of Delaware filed a lawsuit against Fenwick Island for violating the Delaware Constitution by allowing non-human artificial entities–such as corporations and LLCs–to vote in municipal elections.

With over 2 million business entities incorporated in Delaware–roughly double the amount of actual people living in the state–the people of Delaware risk having their voices drowned out when towns like Fenwick Island allow corporate voting.

We stand in firm defense of the democratic ideal: "one person, one vote."
