A Call to Action: We need you!
38th Club PAC —Election Summary: THE GOOD, THE BAD & THE UGLY
Nov 3, 2026 (unofficial results)
We on the 38th Republican Club PAC Board want to thank everyone for your generous donations of time and money. That support gave us momentum and helped us win in the 38th. We are grateful! and with your help, we will keep building. While things did not go as we had planned in both Delaware and Nationally, we live to fight another day. Let’s embrace the challenges in front of us and collectively as a Club put our energies, efforts and resources behind defeating the Democrats and their socialist dreams for our State and Country. So let me recap what happened on November 3rd 2026.
THE GOOD
Our candidates won: Carlie Carey (RD 38), Gerald Hocker (SD 20), Doug Hudson (Sussex Council 4), and John Atkins (RD 41). Those wins show that effort matters. Familiar faces and new friends alike helped-Thank You! We need you now more than ever, there is a place for you in what comes next. Come meet neighbors who care about the same things. Bring friends and lets make our Club an even more potent force in Southern Delaware. Our next meeting is Monday December 7th at 6:30PM at the South Coastal Library-Bethany Beach
THE BAD
In RD 38 and SD 20, a higher share of registered Democrats (77%) turned out than registered Republicans. (69%) In Winning these seats we must not hide the turnout gap — and that is something we can improve together by showing up, inviting friends, and being a part of the 38th District Republican Club. Share your experiences, become a beacon for the Republican cause, and don’t let the Democrats ruin this beautiful state.
THE UGLY
On unofficial House returns Democrats won 30 of 41 seats. Changing Delaware’s Constitution takes a two-thirds vote — at least 28 of 41 House seats and 14 of 21 Senate seats — in two legislatures in a row, with a regular election in between. There is no final statewide voter yes/no, and the Governor does not sign or veto it. If one party has at least 28 House and 14 Senate seats, it can move those changes without the other party’s votes. The Senate’s full post-election makeup has not been verified for this publication. But it is likely the Democrats have a supermajority on both chambers. Please come to the next 38th Club meeting to hear our battle plan. This is not over, but we must take action!
Our next step — Meet, Volunteer, Give & Unite
Join us at the next 38th Club PAC meeting on Monday, December 7, at the South Coastal Library in Bethany Beach, and bring a friend. Ask questions, meet fellow members, and find a meaningful way to contribute. Together, we have the power to achieve our goals. Come and hear our plans, on how we plan to push back against Democratic socialists. Democrats will pursue bills, tax and fee increases, and mandates that we believe will burden Delaware and its residents. When those proposals reach Legislative Hall, we will act. Come be a part of the solution to what ails Delaware. We will share a comprehensive action plan and we need your support!
We welcome donations of time and money, whatever you can offer, to sustain our opposition to Democratic policies. Whether you volunteer or contribute financially, your support keeps the Club in the fight. Everyone is welcome.
We have two options: sit back and let the Democrats wreak havoc on Delaware, or stand up, fight, and challenge them on every occasion—we in the 38th choose the latter, and we will continue our fight.
We are optimistic because we have already seen what this club can do. Join us on Monday December 7th at 6:30PM (meet & greet at 6PM) at the South Coastal Library in Bethany Beach and meet our elected officials. Guest speaker to be announced shortly.

In the 38th we do what’s Right & we will Fight, Fight, Fight!
