History



Delaware has always had only one U.S. Representative, except for 10 years between 1813 and 1823, when the state had two at-large representatives. The two seats were filled by a statewide ballot, with the two candidates receiving the highest votes being elected.


Former U.S. Representative Michael N. Castle, a Republican and former Governor of Delaware, held this seat from January 1993 until his retirement in January 2011, after his unsuccessful bid for the Republican nomination to run for the U.S. Senate. Even as Delaware swung heavily Democratic at the state and national level, Castle was usually reelected without serious difficulty. Since his retirement, however, the Democrats have held it with no substantive opposition.
