Ballot measures · November 3, 2026
Delaware
No statewide measures are on Delaware's November 3, 2026 ballot, according to the official sources we read.1,
Research draft. We gathered this from official sources on October 27, 2026: election offices, state laws and court records, each linked to its source. Separate reviewers checked a random sample of 48 facts from the ballot-measure research against the cited sources and found no errors. The rest hasn't been reviewed fact by fact yet, so check the linked source before relying on anything here.
§1Where this list comes from
That there are none rests on these official sources. Researched October 27, 2026.

None of them calls the list certified or final, so we don’t either.
§2Notes on the research
What the research couldn’t find or confirm, in its own plain words. Nothing is left out silently.
- Delaware's constitution does not send amendments to voters: an amendment passed by two-thirds of each house is made public 90 to 120 days before the next general election, and it becomes part of the constitution if the next General Assembly passes it again by two-thirds of each house (Del. Const. art. XVI, § 1). Any proposed amendments published before this election are for public notice only and are not on the ballot.
- The constitution does let the General Assembly, by a two-thirds vote of each house, put a question on calling a constitutional convention to voters at a general election (Del. Const. art. XVI, § 2). No such question appears on the Department of Elections' official 2026 general election sample ballots we read, one in each county (Election Districts 01-01 in New Castle, 11-05 in Kent and 04-01 in Sussex); they list only candidate contests. We read 3 of the 530 sample ballots; a statewide question would appear on all of them.
- None of these sources calls a list of ballot questions certified or final, so the list is not marked certified.
