Fifteen Delaware legislators have introduced HB 215, which moves the non-presidential primary from September to the fourth Tuesday in April. It also requires parties that nominate by convention to have chosen their nominees by March 15, and to submit their names by April 1. Current law allows the names to be submitted by September 1.
The bill is discriminatory because minor parties (those which nominate by convention) would need to have chosen their nominees more than a month before the major parties.
Minor party presidential and vice-presidential nominees would not need to be filed until the Tuesday after that party’s presidential convention.
