Gubernatorial candidates weigh in on reforming education in Delaware

Changing #Delaware’s education funding formula.

Investing in #childcare and early childhood #education.

Ensuring equitable resources across all schools and providing teacher support and professional development.

These were just some of the topics that the five candidates for Delaware’s next governor tackled during an education forum hosted by the #VisionCoalition of Delaware on Wednesday evening at Polytech High School in Woodside.

Comprehensive article on prior DNREC secretary ‘dark horse’ gubernatorial candidate Colin O’Mara

Seems like all the candidates have some issue. Hall-Long with campaign finance, Meyer with zoning issues, and now O’Mara with an FTX/Bankman-Fried connection.

Another candidate running for #Governor of Delaware!

“In the latest twist in the 2024 election, Collin O’Mara, a former #Delaware Secretary of Natural Resources and Environmental Control and current CEO of the National Wildlife Federation, is exploring a run for governor.

He joins a gubernatorial campaign that already features New Castle County Executive Matt Meyer and Lt. Gov. Bethany Hall Long, who has been endorsed by Gov. #JohnCarney but also been hamstrung by prior campaign finance issues."
