CitizenVectron Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 A Delaware city is set to give corporations the right to vote in elections WWW.CBSNEWS.COM Seaford, where 340 people voted in the last election, could open the process to 230 corporate entities. Quote Seaford, a town of about 8,000 on the Nanticoke River, amended its charter in April to allow businesses — including LLCs, corporations, trusts or partnerships — the right to vote in local elections. The law would go into effect once both houses of Delaware's state legislature approve it. ... "These are folks that have fully invested in their community with the money, with their time, with their sweat. We want them to have a voice if they choose to take it," Seaford mayor David Genshaw told local station WRDE. Quote A handful of other Delaware towns, including Fenwick Island, Henlopen Acres and Dagsboro, already allow corporations to vote, according to Common Cause. Human residents don't always take kindly to that permissiveness. In 2019, it was revealed that a single property manager who controlled multiple LLCs voted 31 times in a Newark, Delaware, town referendum, an incident that led Newark to amend its rules. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
