Election Commissioner Albence

More than 53,000 absentee ballots were cast in Delaware’s 2020 presidential primary, approximately 10 times as many as were cast in the 2016 primary. Legislation signed into law by Gov. Carney’s will provide Delawareans the option to vote by mail in the general election this November, without having to request an absentee ballot. State Election Commissioner Anthony Albence estimates mail-in ballots could account for half of all votes cast in future elections.
