Full release from Will Imbrie-Moore:Â
Former Biden/Harris campaign staffer, lifelong organizer, and teacher Will Imbrie-Moore has launched a primary campaign in the 19th House District, covering parts of Newport, Stanton, Marshallton, Price’s Corner, and Brandywine Springs. Democrat Imbrie-Moore is running on a platform of fully funding public schools and school meals, fighting the housing crisis, and raising the minimum wage to $20 by 2035.
“As a 12th-generation Delawarean and the youngest of three, I learned the values of hard work and democracy from my family,” said Imbrie-Moore. “I’m running to be the youngest member of our state legislature because this moment demands a new generation of leadership to confront the affordability crisis and fight for real change for working families.”
Imbrie-Moore has spent most of his adult life fighting back against the Trump administration as a Democratic campaign staffer. He believes that the system is failing students, workers, families, and seniors – even as it works better than ever for billionaires, corporate PACs, and lobbyists.Â
“My childhood was defined by Pop-Pop’s time-honored stories sitting around the kitchen table under his old portrait of FDR,” said Imbrie-Moore. “We talked for hours about his time serving as Delaware State Auditor and as a State Representative, about how to take on big policy fights, bring opposing sides together, and make a real difference for people.”
If elected, Imbrie-Moore would be the youngest and the first openly bisexual elected official in the state legislature.
Imbrie-Moore is running against Rep. Kim Williams, the powerful chair of the House Appropriations and House Education committees. The primary election is scheduled for September 15, 2026.
About Will Imbrie-Moore
A 12th-generation Delawarean and the youngest of three, Will Imbrie-Moore graduated from St. Andrew’s in Middletown before studying economics at Harvard University, where he organized with Harvard College Democrats. He was one of the counterprotesters against a violent mob of white supremacists at the infamous Unite The Right rallies in Charlottesville, Virginia in 2017 when an attacker drove his car into the crowd and took the life of Heather Heyer, one of the other counterprotesters.Â
Will spent several years working on progressive Democratic campaigns across the country before returning home to Delaware and working as a senior policy researcher for President Biden and Vice President Harris. In Wilmington, the Biden/Harris campaign was the first unionized headquarters of any U.S. presidential nominee.
After Kamala Harris lost the 2024 campaign against Donald Trump, Will left the campaign world to pursue a new career as a teacher. He saw first-hand students’ hopes and fears and just how much families in the state are struggling, inspiring him to launch his campaign for state representative.
