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.
