AN ACT PROPOSING AN AMENDMENT TO ARTICLE V OF THE DELAWARE CONSTITUTION RELATING TO VOTING.

Summary

The bill changes Delaware’s voting qualifications: anyone 18 or older who is a resident at the time of registration can vote, regardless of how long they have lived in the state. It ends literacy tests, removes the ability of the General Assembly to permanently strip voting rights for felonies, and limits disenfranchisement to the period of actual incarceration. The changes also eliminate a ten‑year voting ban for election‑related offenses.
