Claire Snyder-Hall is a rare candidate

April 30, 2024

I have known Claire Snyder-Hall for more than a dozen years now and it’s safe to say I have rarely, if ever, met a more sensitive, qualified and intelligent candidate for public office than Claire.

Claire Snyder-Hall has announced her candidacy for Delaware’s 14th Representative District seat, and her accomplished history of community involvement and service to the public makes her the most qualified person to vie for that position.

Claire has demonstrated, time and again, that she supports and fights for open government, transparency in government and, ultimately, good government. Claire, in her former position as director of Common Cause of Delaware, has shown this willingness to engage in the battle for good government that will serve the best interests of Delaware’s families, workers and businesses. She has fought against the well-funded special interests that challenge the interests of the public.

Claire Snyder-Hall is a breath of fresh, progressive air who has continued to fight for individual rights and against the partisan bickering that so often has impeded our Legislature.

In my two decades of public service, I have rarely encountered a more qualified and dedicated candidate for public office than Claire.

I hope that you will join me in supporting Claire Snyder-Hall in her quest to serve the people of the 14th District and all Delawareans. It is of the utmost importance to you and your families and all of Delaware that we vote for individuals like Claire who will serve the only special interests that matter – the interests of the people.
