The number of elections in the state of Delaware varies year by year. Presidential, governor, state senate, state house, and United States senate elections are held once every four years, while House of Representatives elections are held every two years. Local, municipal and school board elections tend to occur at least once a year.

The state of Delaware has two members of the United States Senate, one member of the United States House of Representatives, 41 members of the State House of Representatives, and 21 members of the State Senate.

Delaware has three county boards of election who are charged with the calculation and certification of election results, election dispute resolution, and voter roll validation.

As a whole, the state of Delaware tends to be a reliably Democratic state. Democrats have held both U.S. Senate seats in the state since 1994, the one House of Representatives seat since 2010, the governorship since 1988, and the Democratic nominee for U.S. president has carried Delaware in every presidential election since 1992.
