Living former Governors of Delaware

[change | change source]

As of February 2026, there are four living former Governors of Delaware, the oldest being Tom Carper, who served as the 71st Governor of Delaware from 1993-2001 and then as a U.S. Senator for the state from 2001-2025, at 70. The most recent death of a former governor was that of Mike Castle, who served as the 69th Governor of Connecticut (served 1985-1992) on August 14, 2025.

  1. ↑ The official website labels John Carney as the 74th governor;[2] this indicates that repeat, non-consecutive terms are numbered.
  2. ↑ The office was named president until 1792.[3]
  3. ↑ The office of lieutenant governor was created in 1897,[4] with the first election taking place in 1900.
  4. ↑ Lieutenant governors represented the same party as their governor unless noted.
  5. ↑ Most sources do not specify the day McKinly was captured; at least one specifies that McKinly and the city of Wilmington were captured the day after the Battle of Brandywine, which was on September 11, 1777.[9]
  6. ↑ McKinly was captured and taken prisoner by British forces.[10] He was exchanged for loyalist Governor William Franklin of New Jersey in August 1778.[11]
  7. 1 2 Speaker of the Assembly McKean acted as chief executive until the return of speaker of the Legislative Council Read from the Continental Congress in Philadelphia, who then served as vice-president for the remainder of the term.[15]
  8. ↑ Kallenbach has Rodney leaving office on November 5, with a gap until Dickinson takes office, with no reason given.[14]
  9. 1 2 Under the 1776 constitution, presidents were ineligible to the office until three years had passed after leaving it.[20]
  10. ↑ Sources disagree on when Dickinson took office; the proceedings of the assembly, published in 1988, says his inaugural address was delivered November 13;[23] the governor's register, published in 1926, says he was elected on November 13 and inaugurated on November 14.[24]
  11. ↑ Dickinson was elected President of Pennsylvania and took office November 7, 1782, holding both presidencies simultaneously. Criticism of this caused him to turn administration of the state over to Speaker of the Legislative Council Cook, but Dickinson did not formally resign until January 13, 1783.[6][25]
  12. ↑ Clayton's first term was as president, so he was eligible to run for a term as governor.[42]
  13. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Under the 1792 constitution, governors could serve no longer than three in any term of six years.[43]
  14. 1 2 Sources disagree on if Bedford died on September 28 or September 30, sometimes within the same source.[48]
  15. ↑ The constitutional start date for the term in 1799 was January 15; multiple sources say Bassett took office January 9, but it is not known why it was off schedule.[14][55] A few sources do say he took office January 15.[56]
  16. ↑ Bassett resigned, having been confirmed to the United States Third Circuit Court.[53]
  17. 1 2 Due to the death of Governor-elect Molleston, there was some question as to who should take office when Clark's term ended. To minimize any confusion, Clark resigned a few days ahead of schedule, and the newly elected state senate chose a speaker, John Stout, who would act as governor for one year of Molleston's term before a special election was held for the remaining two years.[84][85]
  18. ↑ Special election to serve out the last two years of Henry Molleston's term[85]
  19. ↑ The governor's register has Haslet being inaugurated on January 22, but it specifies the third Tuesday in January, which in 1823 was the 21st.[97]
  20. ↑ Haslet died on June 20;[101] Thomas was not sworn in until June 24.[102]
  21. ↑ Because of the death of Haslet so early in his term, an early election was called. Unlike when Henry Molleston died, where the election was only for the final two years of his term, in this case the new election was for a new three-year term, causing the election schedule to shift.[85]
  22. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 Under the 1831 constitution, governors were not eligible a second time to the office.[116]
  23. ↑ First term under the 1831 constitution, which lengthened terms to four years.[121]
  24. ↑ Special election called due to the deaths of Stockton and Maull, causing a shift in the election schedule.[150]
  25. ↑ Because Marvil died so early in his term, the General Assembly decided to conduct an election for a full term in 1896, changing the election schedule.[208]
  26. 1 2 3 4 5 6 Represented the Democratic Party
  27. 1 2 3 4 5 6 Under the 1897 constitution, governors were not eligible a third time to the office.[235]
  28. ↑ Boggs resigned, having been elected to the United States Senate.[246]
  29. ↑ Represented the Republican Party
  30. ↑ Castle resigned, having been elected to the United States House of Representatives.[264]
  31. ↑ Carper resigned, having been elected to the United States Senate.[270]
  32. ↑ Carney resigned, having been elected mayor of Wilmington.
  33. ↑ Meyer's term expires on January 16, 2029.
  34. ↑ Resigned as governor right after taking the oath of office as Mayor of Wilmington
  35. ↑ Hall-Long had served as the 75th Governor of Delaware for a period of 14 days after John Carney had resigned to be sworn in as the Mayor of Wilmington
