An Act To Amend Title 15 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Elections.
HB-11


About HB-11

Most states abolished “fusion” candidacies over a century ago. Only a few states other than Delaware still permit such practice. Moreover, the United States Supreme Court has upheld state laws prohibiting fusion candidacies. This Bill would allow only members of a political party to seek that party’s nomination for an elected office in a primary or otherwise be nominated for office by that party.
