Delaware voters can make history on Nov. 5
On Nov. 5, the people of Delaware have a chance to make history. This election in Delaware is important for so many reasons, including helping to cement the legacy of one of their favorite sons, President Joseph Robinette Biden.
Delaware voters can elect the first woman, and first African American, as their United States Senator. Lisa Blunt Rochester will be only the third African American woman to ever be elected to the United States Senate.
She is a native Delawarean, and has shown she knows how to get things done. She began her career in public service as an intern, and then a caseworker, for then Congressman Tom Carper (D-Del.), where she helped people during challenging times with their Social Security benefits, disability insurance claims, IRS disputes, and housing needs.
She went on to serve in the cabinets of Delaware governors Carper and Minner, breaking barriers as she served as Secretary of Labor, Deputy Secretary of Health and Social Services, and State Personnel Director.
