Candidates for the District 20 seat in the upcoming special election faced off for the last time July 31 during a debate at Milton Elementary.

Democrat Alonna Berry and Republican Nikki Miller are seeking to serve as the House representative serving the Milton, Lewes and Harbeson areas, replacing former Rep. Stell Parker Selby, D-Milton, who resigned late last session after missing the entire legislative session because of health issues.

Berry and Miller took a series of questions during a League of Women Voters event, giving similar responses in support of improved infrastructure, education and housing. They also agreed on support for diversity, equity and inclusion, and a woman’s right to choose.

No questions were asked about raising taxes or potential budget cuts, but in a previous business forum, Miller said she would not raise taxes, while Berry said a review of funding gaps and new revenue streams is needed.
