Democrats in Array
Having joined my RD, I’m getting mail from people running for Chair and Vice-Chair of the Delaware Democratic Party.
Elizabeth Maron is running for a full term as State Chair. I think she might be MUCH to timid to be the Chair right now.
The 9th endorsed Debbie Harrington for Vice-Chair, and office that Coby Owens is also competing for. I know there are others. Who are they? Who are you supporting?
Right now I would call myself persuadable.
Eric’s endorsement carries some weight.
Just ran into some comrades at the rally in solidarity with Palestine & Colombia. Word is there’s 2 party vice chairs. Coby is running for 1st seat & DH 2nd seat. You can vote for both apparently…
This is correct. Remember about the gender rules for Chair and Vice Chairs. If the Chair is going to be Betsy (and I’m not aware of anyone running against her), then the First Vice Chair has to be a man or non-binary. So let’s assume Coby wins that. The 2nd Vice Chair must be either a woman or non-binary. So that would be Debbie Harrington.
Party rules require a male and a female vice chair.
The new rules will change that to be more gender-neutral. Assuming they are adopted, DD is correct. The terms Female Vice-Chair and Male Vice Chair will be replaced by 1st Vice Chair and 2nd Vice Chair.
The 1st Vice-Chair must be a different gender from the Chair and the 2nd Vice-Chair must be of a different gender from the 1st Vice-Chair.
New Castle County also made the same change this year and elected the first openly non-binary officer.
Yes they county basically changed their whole rules for one person who happens to be binary, and since no one else is binary can keep running for a position because the binary person will always be a “dif gender” from a male or female. Some uber super wokeness that had a lot of delegates rolling their eyes behind the monitor
You’re pretty dumb, aren’t you?

This is a national effort, but I guess you’re prtty blind with your eyes rolled up like that.
The only other person that I have heard is running for anything is Martin Willis will be going against Coby. Martin is a union Boilermaker and was a Biden delegate to the national convention.
