What's on my mind, dear readers...

I was asked to announce my birthdate when I went to vote in the school board election yesterday. I have never been asked to do that in my 14 years of voting in Delaware. I was very confused and asked the poll workers about it. While they were very nice, they had no idea why I had to do that. I spoke to several people on Facebook about their experiences at the polls. Responses ranged from 4 yes, they had to announce their birthdate to 7 who did not.

Today I called the Kent County Board of Elections. They acted as if we had always been asked, and as if I didn't know what I was talking about. The Office Manager directed me to the Delaware Code, specifically Title 15, stating that we must announce our birthdate. I could not find that statement, so I asked ChatGPT to search the code for it. This is what it found.

For regular check-in at the polling place, Delaware Code § 4937(a) says the voter must announce their name and address and provide proof of identity. That section does not say the voter must verbally provide or confirm their date of birth during ordinary check-in. It also says that if the voter does not have proof of identity, they sign an affirmation that they are the person listed on the election district record.

A birth date does appear in Delaware election law for provisional ballots. Under 15 Del. C. § 4948(h)(5), a provisional ballot affidavit can be considered incomplete if it does not include the person’s full name, complete address, political party affiliation for a primary election, and date of birth.

So the clean distinction is:

Regular voting check-in: name, address, and proof of identity — not birth date in § 4937(a).
Provisional ballot paperwork: name, address, and date of birth are required on the affidavit.

Also, I found a proposed bill page that would have added birth-date questioning to the voting procedure, but that is shown as proposed/amending language, not the current text of § 4937 itself. The current Delaware Code text controls.
