What should the new governor dive into first?

With Matt Meyer as Delaware’s incoming governor, what do you want him to focus on first? What do you anticipate under his leadership?

• I’m sure there are many different areas that people will say the new governor should dive into first. I think he should start with the one thing that will affect the most people, and that is taxes. Delaware has a large senior population, and I think he should look into maybe eliminating the school tax or even property tax. Seniors living on a fixed income need all the help they can get. — Stan Sipple
• Get the attorney general to start holding criminals accountable and prosecute the crimes they commit. That would go a long way toward reducing crime and improving morale among our soldiers in blue. — Ellen Hart Richardson
• I hope he works with this lady to get nursing homes working better in Delaware: Margaret E. Bailey, executive director of the Delaware Nursing Home Residents Quality Assurance Commission. — Linda Shildt Gonzalez
• Being good at governing. Something he’s not familiar with. — Jonathan Contant
• Cancel the electric vehicle mandate issued by Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control. The majority of Delawareans don’t want a California mandate here in our state! — Marc Kucek
• Crime. — Katherine D. Clay
• Eliminate stupid gun restrictions that don’t work, have been proven to not work and only endanger and restrict the law-abiding citizen. Also, reduce regulations to make it easier for someone to start a business in this state. — Bob Hice
• Cease all offshore wind farm activities immediately! — Tommy Lee
• What I would like him to focus on is reversing all of Gov. John Carney’s policies, like literally deciding how we were going to handle everything we did based on what other states were doing at the time. — Kyle Hendrix
• Rent control! — Laura Dickerson
• Crooked cops. — Karma Coming
