“Further, self-response rates for 2020 lag behind the rates for 2010 in most states. According to U.S. Census data, the overall self-response rate in Delaware is 62.4%, with New Castle County at 67.8%, Kent County at 67.2%, and Sussex County with the lowest response rate at 51.5%.” from https://news.delaware.gov/2020/09/03/attorney-general-jennings-fights-trump-administrations-attempts-to-reduce-census-efforts

The original video – https://livestream.com/stateofdelaware/text-to-911/videos/184455734, did not have closed captioning.  DAD recently reached out to someone that knew how to make this possible and DAD was given permission to share the captioned version (shown above).  Delaware State will be adding the closed captioning eventually as both files came from them.
