The 2020 Delaware House of Representatives elections took place as part of the biennial2020 United States elections. Delaware voters elected state representatives in all 41 districts. State representatives serve two-year terms in the Delaware House of Representatives.
The primary election on September 15, 2020 determined which candidates appeared on the November 3, 2020 general election ballot.[1][2]
Following the previous election in 2018, Democrats retained control of the Delaware House with 26 seats to Republicans' 15 seats. To reclaim control of the chamber from Democrats, Republicans needed to net six House seats.
Democrats retained control of the Delaware House following the 2020 general election, with the balance of power remaining unchanged: 26 D to 15 R.
Note: Delaware does not report results in uncompetitive primaries (i.e., races with only one candidate per party in the primary). Therefore, most districts do not include primary results.[1]
