ADD YOUR SUPPORT!
Your support and contributions will enable us to elect Dee as the next New Castle County Executive, but also bolster support for the priority reforms her campaign represents.
With the exception of Senator Stephanie Hansen, New Castle County Councilmember Dee Durham is the most effective environmental legislator in the state legislature.

"Just saw your latest New Castle County newsletter and wanted to comment on it as I probably have in the past. You should get so much kudos for ushering in what strikes me as transformative enlightening of “the body politic” of New Castle County, not to mention the broader regions of the whole state of Delaware! You truly are able to marry the purpose of historical conservation with current important interests and events that are impactful to the citizenry. You were able to actually strike a cord in engagement! Now more than ever, because as I’m sure you are keenly aware, our nation is faltering in healthy pride, inspiration, and activism. Now, if we could just clone lots of Dee Durhams in our state, and the nation, politics per se could be restored to a place of honor and decency! Need I say, please keep up your excellent work."
Carole Capriotti-May, Constituent
