Owen Nicholas Carlson is running as a Republican candidate for Delaware’s U.S. House seat in the general election scheduled for Nov. 3, 2026. The race is contested and includes seven candidates: six Republicans and one Democrat.

Carlson’s candidate record does not list a biography. It also does not list campaign finance totals for money raised, money spent or cash on hand.

Carlson’s policy positions

Carlson has no documented policy positions on file. That means there is no official position to describe on issues that may arise in the campaign.

A candidate’s party label identifies the party under which the candidate is running, but it does not establish that candidate’s position on any particular issue. Carlson is listed as a Republican. Any description of Carlson’s views would require a documented position from an official record.
