Common Cause Delaware applauds the passage of the Automatic Voter Registration bill (SB 5) by the General Assembly. Our government ‘by the people’ is stronger when more people participate, and with AVR in place, we move closer to the goal of 100%  voter registration.

At a virtual press conference that was streamed to social media, community organizations from across the state came together to publicly launch the Delaware Voting Rights Coalition (DVRC), Delaware’s first statewide coalition focused strictly on expanding access to voting.

The Delaware Senate has just approved SB 5, a bill that will create an automatic voter registration system at the Delaware Division of Motor Vehicles, and potentially other state agencies. We urge Delaware's House of Representatives to do the same.
