About Delaware's State Senate District 1
Delaware’s 1st Senate District (a.k.a. SD1) is one of 21 districts in the Delaware Senate. SD1 covers the northeastern tip of New Castle County along the Delaware River, including Claymont, Bellefonte, most of Edgemoor, and parts of northern Wilmington.
Like all districts in the state, the SD1 is located entirely within Delaware’s at-large congressional district. It overlaps with the 1st, 3rd, 4th, 6th, 7th, and 10th districts of the Delaware House of Representatives. The district borders New Jersey via the Delaware River and Pennsylvania via the Twelve-Mile Circle. Delaware Senators are elected to staggered four-year terms. Under normal circumstances, the SD1 holds elections in presidential years.
