The Delaware House passed House Bill 65, sponsored by Representative Stephanie Boldien, to move the State Primary to April to coincide with the presidential primary election every four years. Critics call it an Incumbent Protection bill, but supporters argue that it gives challengers more time to campaign for the general election. In 2024, several neighboring states held their state and presidential primaries on the same day, while Delaware had the latest state primary in the country in 2020. The House of Representatives will reconvene on April 9, 2025, to consider various tributes and resolutions, including Minority Health Awareness, Crime Victims’ Rights Week, and Delaware Teach Children to Save Day. The Senate is scheduled to reconvene to discuss legislation related to the Delaware Lease-Purchase Agreement Act and genetic counselors. On Thursday, April 10, the Senate will discuss bills related to voting, driving restrictions during a state of emergency, and the employment of state pensioners. The Address by the Honorable Matthew S. Meyer, Governor of Delaware, will take place on April 10.
