Vote!

November 7, 2022

On Tuesday, Delawareans will head to the polls to vote for candidates they believe will best address the issues and priorities for our state. Here at the State Chamber, we encourage voters to learn about the issues and candidates who are on your ballot. But that’s just the beginning.

Once the results are known, we encourage you to invite elected officials to your business location and share with them what you and your company does, who your customers are, and how the policy choices they make will impact your employees and customers.

Serving in public office is very challenging because you are called upon to make choices on a wide range of topics. The best policymakers will seek out experts and diverse opinions ahead of any votes. Your involvement may help guide the final decisions they make, so please get connected.
