SUMMARY:Return Day
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:Return Day in Georgetown is a truly unique Sussex County tradit
 ion\nthat dates back about 230 years to 1792\, a year after the county sea
 t\nwas moved from Lewes to the newly created town of Georgetown. At that\n
 time\, Delaware law required all county voters to cast their ballots in\nt
 he county seat.\n\nIt's about 230 years\, because the first year is a best
  guess by\nhistorians. Others claim the event's origins date back to 1811.
 \n\nIn any case\, organizers said it's the only such event in the country\
 nand has been a legal half-day holiday in Delaware since 1965.\n\nVoters w
 ere required to cast their election ballots in Georgetown and\nthen return
  two days later to hear the results\, hence the name Return\nDay. The day 
 quickly turned into a celebration. It's held every two\nyears on the Thurs
 day following the election – this year Nov. 5.\n
