A judge has ruled that corporations can vote in some Delaware elections.

Delaware Superior Court Judge Craig Karsnitz said the town of Fenwick Island was not diluting human votes by allowing companies ​and other legal entities that own property to cast votes in municipal elections.

These "legal entities" and corporations make up about 12% of registered voters in the town.

In total Delaware has far more ​corporations chartered in the state than residents.

Judge Karsnitz rejected the constitutional arguments of the ACLU, including the claim that "entity" or corporate voting dilutes the political power of living people.

More: A source told me that the other, higher bidder for The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette was Alden Global Capital (which did not respond to comment request). PG owner Block Communications went with the nonprofit Venetoulis Institute instead https://t.co/zw3jxr9PuY

One of the weirdest parts of when Catholicism ends up back in the headlines is finding out every Protestant denomination has some sort of specific and deeply held set of opinions about us when I grew not knowing the difference between a Lutheran and a Baptist.

Wow, a 2025 study found you could connect Craigslist entering a city with a decline in local newspaper staffing, leading to a decline in politics coverage, which in turn led to a decline in readership, which they connect to more partisan voting and extreme candidates.

Harry Kalas' widow said the Phillies betrayed the legendary broadcaster by removing Harry The K's for the Ghost Energy Deck and breaking the $20,000 a year contract with her. They won't be able to play High Hopes in 2027 unless they pay. https://t.co/oVfAWtEYYf
