Hi John, it's official: Bethany Hall-Long is the Democratic candidate for Governor of Delaware.
In case you missed it: On Tuesday night, the Delaware Democratic Party voted unanimously to endorse Bethany’s campaign!
After seven years as our Lieutenant Governor and many years serving in the State House and State Senate, it’s clear that Bethany is the only candidate in this race with the experience, the vision, and the relationships to get things done and move our state forward.
Bethany is deeply honored to have the full support and confidence of the Delaware Dems going into the primary – and we’re proud to have them join our long list of supporters:
Governor John Carney, and over 40 key leaders and unions across Delaware – including Speaker of the House Val Longhurst, the Delaware State Education Association, and the AFL-CIO
Both the New Castle County and Kent County Democratic Parties
And working-class families, public school teachers, healthcare workers, and folks in every community from Claymont to Selbyville
Our coalition is growing every day because Delawearans have seen Bethany in action and know that she will always listen to their needs.
John, this endorsement is a big deal. The DelDems know how to win – in 2018, they led us to victory in all statewide offices, and in 2022, they brought their A-game to keep our majorities in the State House and Senate. 👏🏻
And now they’ve thrown their support behind Bethany because they know she is the woman for the job. Nothing shows that more than her extensive record of public service – as a nurse, as an educator, and as an elected official.
