Ruth Briggs King, the lone Republican running for Lt. Governor, is making her first run for statewide office. She served 14-years in the State House of Representatives before stepping down in November 2023 when she moved out of the district she represented.

Her campaign website is here.

We reached out to candidates run in statewide races for and invited them to sit down with us for a Candidate Conversation.

Candidates in each race are being asked about the same set of topics to allow you to get to know them and compare them.

Candidate Conversations is supported in part by a grant from Delaware Humanities, a state program of the National Endowment for the Humanities.
