2018 General Assembly Candidates

2018 General Assembly

The Delaware General Assembly (GA) is made up of the State Senate and the State House of Representatives. Members of the GA are essential to successful criminal justice reform because they can pass reform-positive bills and oppose bills that would make the criminal justice system worse. Electing state senators and representatives who are committed to criminal justice reform is just as important as electing a reform-minded AG.

During the primary election we sent each primary candidate our Smart Justice platform and a questionnaire to learn about their views on criminal justice reform.  Each elected candidate’s answers are listed below (for those we received).
