In Delaware, ineligible incarcerated voters are not offered an opportunity for in-person voting. While Delaware allowed eligible incarcerated voters to vote by absentee ballot in the past, in 2022, the Delaware Supreme Court struck down universal mail-in voting, with only few exceptions that did not include eligible incarcerated voters. This leaves thousands of eligible voters without any way to cast a ballot ahead of the November 2024 elections.

The 老澳门开奖结果 of Delaware sent multiple letters to Delaware agencies calling on them to adopt in-person voting in Delaware Department of Correctional (鈥淒DOC鈥�) facilities, making clear that the State has a legal responsibility to ensure eligible voters can cast a ballot. In response, Delaware has declined to provide in-person voting opportunities for those residing in DDOC facilities.

Plaintiff PLAN, a coalition of jailhouse lawyers and advocates who support system-impacted individuals, filed suit in November 2023 in federal court in Delaware. Plaintiff asks the court to order Delaware to provide voting machines in facilities across the state. The 老澳门开奖结果, 老澳门开奖结果 of Delaware, Shaw Keller LLP, and Proskauer Rose LLP represent PLAN in the case. Plaintiff filed a motion for a preliminary injunction to get relief for eligible incarcerated voters before the November 2024 election. The court held a preliminary injunction hearing in April 2024.

In August 2024, the Court dismissed the case without prejudice, holding that it lacked subject matter jurisdiction to hear Plaintiffs' claim.
