Lewes mayor will not seek re-election

Lewes Mayor Andrew Williams has announced he will not seek re-election. Williams dropped the bombshell as the Feb. 10 council meeting was about to adjourn.

“There are some personal things in my life, both good and bad, and you have to sort of weigh those things because you’re signing up for a full three-year term. I’ve made the decision that I’m not up for it,” Williams said.

Williams said he would have more to say closer to the end of his term. Williams was elected in 2022, defeating incumbent Mayor Ted Becker.

“It has nothing to do with this group up here. It’s been very good,” he said. “City staff and the police department are in a really good place.”
