A VOICE FOR THE PEOPLE
“I am the voice committed to advocating for policies, programs, & services that will benefit all in this diverse RD 20 community.”
Eastern Sussex Democrats
The Eastern Sussex Democrats have announced their first endorsements for the upcoming Democratic primary and the November general election. The members present at the organization’s February 7th meeting unanimously voted to endorse State Senator Russ Huxtable for State Senate District 6, State Representative Stell Parker-Selby for Representative District 20, and Dana Paskins for Sussex County Council District 3.
First elected to the State Senate in 2022, Huxtable has proven himself to be a dedicated and effective legislator, authoring and sponsoring important legislation to prohibit commercial development in Cape Henlopen State Park as well as addressing many other critical issues.
Stell Parker-Selby was elected to the 20th Representative District seat in 2022 in one of only two races that flipped a traditionally Republican seat to Democratic control, the other being Huxtable’s State Senate bid. Parker-Selby has well established roots in the area and has been an outstanding representative for the interests of her constituents.
Dana Paskins, a retired US Air Force officer who grew up in Sussex County, will bring a fresh and progressive voice to a County Council that too often seems to favor breakneck development over preserving the very special quality of life in Sussex County.
“All three of these candidates represent what is best about the Democratic Party in Delaware,” said Kathy Hughes, President of ESD. “They are dedicated to ensuring that everyone in Sussex County can enjoy everything that makes life here so special. We are proud to endorse these three Democratic candidates, and we look forward to supporting their campaigns.”
