    Democrats won control of the Delaware State Senate in 1974. In 2022, they won a 15-6 majority.

    The table below shows the partisan history of the Delaware Senate following every general election from 1992 to 2022. All data from 2006 or earlier comes from Michael Dubin's Party Affiliations in the State Legislatures (McFarland Press, 2007). Data after 2006 was compiled by Ballotpedia staff.

    Before 1992

    From the 1920s through the 1950s, the Delaware Senate was competitive and it often switched partisan control. Starting in 1954, Democrats gained a majority in the chamber and did not lose it until the chamber split 9-9 between the parties in 1966. Republicans won control in the next three elections before losing to the Democrats in 1974. In the years following 1974, Democrats usually held more than 13 seats, the margin needed for a three-fifths majority capable of overriding gubernatorial vetoes.


    Trifecta history

    A state government trifecta is a term that describes single party government, when one political party holds the governor's office and has majorities in both chambers of the legislature in a state government. Between 1992 and 2023, Delaware was under the following types of trifecta control:

    • Democratic trifecta: 2009-2023
    • Republican trifecta: None
    • Divided government: 1992-2008

    2017

    See also: Delaware state legislative special elections, 2017

    Partisan control of the Delaware State Senate was on the line in the February 25, 2017, special election, as Democrats and Republicans battled to establish a one-member majority in the chamber. In the November 2016 general election, Democrats’ 12-to-nine majority in the Senate shrunk to 11 to 10, as Republican Anthony Delcollo defeated Democratic Senate President Patricia Blevins in District 7, 50.5 to 49.5 percent. The partisan balance then became deadlocked at 10 to 10 after Democratic Sen. Bethany Hall-Long vacated her District 10 seat to become Delaware’s lieutenant governor. In the Delaware Senate, the lieutenant governor has the power of casting tie-breaking votes, giving Democrats a narrow majority in the interim between Hall-Long’s resignation and the swearing-in of her successor. Democrat Stephanie Hansen's victory in the special election allowed Democrats to regain an 11 to 10 majority in the Senate and to defend their trifecta in the state.

    Redistricting

    See also: Redistricting in Delaware

    Because Delaware has only one congressional district, congressional redistricting is not necessary. The state legislature draws state legislative district lines. The governor may veto the lines drawn by the state legislature.[14][15]

    State law requires that state legislative districts be "insofar as possible, contiguous and bounded by roads, streams and other natural boundaries." Further, state law stipulates that district lines "may not be drawn to unduly favor any person or political party." Because these requirements are statutory, the legislature may amend them at its discretion.[14][15]

    2020

    On November 2, 2021, Gov. John Carney (D) signed Senate Bill 199 into law, enacting the state's new House and Senate district lines.[16] The Delaware General Assembly previously approved the final House and Senate map proposals on November 1, 2021.[17] The Delaware House of Representatives voted 40-1 in favor of the maps with state Rep. Michael Smith (R) voting against it. The Delaware State Senate approved the maps along party lines with all 14 Democrats in favor and all seven Republicans against.[17] These maps took effect for Delaware's 2022 legislative elections.

    Delaware received its 2010 census data on March 1, 2011. The state population increased by over 115,000 (nearly 15%) from 2000-2010, growing to over 900,000 residents.[18] According to the Delaware Population Consortium, there was a large shift to the southern part of the state, with Sussex County growing by 25% while New Castle County experienced 7% growth.[19]

    On May 17, 2011, the minority caucus of Republicans in the House released their proposal for the state's 41 districts. On May 19, House Democrats released their proposed redistricting map. A public hearing was held on May 26 at 7 p.m.[20] The House passed its redistricting map on June 28, 2011, on a party-line vote.[21] The Senate map was approved on June 30, 2011, by a 15-6 vote. Two districts were merged in the northern part of the state in order to make room for a new southern district.[22][23]

    About legislative sessions in Delaware

    The Tenth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution declares that any power not already given to the federal government is reserved to the states and the people.[35] State governments across the country use this authority to hold legislative sessions where a state's elected representatives meet for a period of time to draft and vote on legislation and set state policies on issues such as taxation, education, and government spending. The different types of legislation passed by a legislature may include resolutions, legislatively referred constitutional amendments, and bills that become law.

    Article II of the Delaware Constitution establishes when the Delaware General Assembly, of which the Senate is a part, is to be in session. Section 4 of Article II states that the General Assembly is to convene on the second Tuesday of January of each calendar year, and it is not to extend beyond 5:00 p.m. on the last day of June.[36]

    Section 4 also allows the General Assembly to be convened into special session by the Governor of Delaware or by the mutual call of the presiding officers of both Houses.

    Legislative roles and procedures

    Every state legislature throughout the country features its own internal procedures that it uses to govern itself and how it interacts with other parts of state government. Ballotpedia's coverage of internal state legislative procedures includes veto overrides, the role of the legislature in the state budget, and procedures for filling membership vacancies.

    Veto overrides

    Veto Override Graphic-Democratic Party.png

    See also: Veto overrides in state legislatures

    State legislatures can override governors' vetoes. Depending on the state, this can be done during the regular legislative session, in a special session following the adjournment of the regular session, or during the next legislative session. The rules for legislative overrides of gubernatorial vetoes in Delaware are listed below.

    How many legislators are required to vote for an override? Three-fifths of members in both chambers.

    Three-fifths of members in both chambers must vote to override a veto, which is 25 of the 41 members in the Delaware House of Representatives and 13 of the 21 members in the Delaware State Senate. Delaware is one of seven states that requires a three-fifths vote from both of its legislative chambers to override a veto.

    How can vetoes be overridden after the legislature has adjourned?

    Vetoes can be overridden when the next regular session convenes.[37]

    Authority: Article III, Section 18 of the Delaware Constitution.

    "Every bill which shall have passed both Houses of the General Assembly shall, before it becomes law, be presented to the Governor; if he or she approves, he or she shall sign it; but if he or she shall not approve, he or she shall return it with his or her objections to the House in which it shall have originated, which House shall enter the objections at large on the journal and proceed to reconsider it. If, after such reconsideration, three-fifths of all the members elected to that House shall agree to pass the bill, it shall be sent together with the objections to the other House, by which it shall likewise be reconsidered, and if approved by three-fifths of all the members elected to that House, it shall become a law; but in neither House shall the vote be taken on the day on which the bill shall be returned to it."

    Role in state budget

    Check out Ballotpedia articles about policy in your state on:
    Budgets • Civil liberties • Education • Elections • Energy • Environment • Healthcare • Pensions

    The state operates on an annual budget cycle. The sequence of key events in the budget process is as follows:[38]

    1. In July, the governor sends budget instructions to state agencies.
    2. In October, agencies submit their budget requests to the governor.
    3. Budget hearings are held with the public in November.
    4. On or before February 1, the governor submits his or her proposed budget to the state legislature.
    5. The legislature must pass a budget with a simple majority by June 30. The fiscal year begins on July 1.

    The governor is statutorily required to submit a balanced budget to the legislature. In turn, the legislature must pass a balanced budget, and any budget signed into law by the governor must be balanced.[38]

    Delaware is one of 43 states in which the governor has line item veto authority.[38]

    Delaware maintains two major governmental funds: the General Fund and the Special Fund. Within the Special Fund, there are four category types: Appropriated Special Funds (ASF), Non-appropriated Special Funds (NSF), Federal Funds, and Bond Funds.[39]

    Committees

    See also: List of committees in Delaware state government

    Every state legislature and state legislative chamber in the country contains several legislative committees. These committees are responsible for studying, amending, and voting on legislation before it reaches the floor of a chamber for a full vote. The different types of committees include standing committees, select or special, and joint.

    • Standing committees are generally permanent committees, the names of which sometimes change from session to session.
    • Select or special committees are temporary committees formed to deal with specific issues such as recent legislation, major public policy or proposals, or investigations.
    • Joint committees are committees that feature members of both chambers of a legislature.

    Ballotpedia covers standing and joint committees. The Delaware State Senate has t 16 standing committees:


    Constitutional amendments

    In every state but Delaware, voter approval is required to enact a constitutional amendment. In each state, the legislature has a process for referring constitutional amendments before voters. In 18 states, initiated constitutional amendments can be put on the ballot through a signature petition drive. There are also many other types of statewide measures.

    The methods in which the Delaware Constitution can be amended:

    See also: Article XVI of the Delaware Constitution and Laws governing ballot measures in Delaware

    Article XVI of the Delaware Constitution defines two mechanisms by which the Delaware Constitution can be amended—a legislative process, and a state constitutional convention. Delaware does not feature the power of citizen initiative for either initiated constitutional amendments or initiated state statutes.

    Legislature

    The Delaware General Assembly can amend the constitution. Unlike in any other state, the state legislature can amend the constitution without a vote of the people. For the legislature to amend the constitution:

    • Two-thirds of all the members elected to each chamber can vote in favor of a proposed amendment.
    • The Delaware Secretary of State then must publish the proposed amendment(s) three months prior to the next general election in at least three newspapers in each county.
    • The subsequent General Assembly then votes again on the proposed amendment(s) and if an amendment receives two-thirds majority approval of all members of each chamber, it becomes part of the constitution.

    Convention

    The state's constitution can also be amended through a constitutional convention.

    • By a two-thirds vote of both chambers of the state legislature, the question, "Shall there be a Convention to revise the Constitution and amend the same?" can go on a statewide ballot. If a simple majority of those voting on the question vote "yes," then there will be a convention.
