About Dexter

Dexter “Dizzy” Bland is a Delaware community advocate, businessman, and independent voice for working people.  He is running for State Representative in District 3 because he believes government should serve the people directly - not party machines, insiders, or special interests.

Rooted in lived experience and community connection, Dexter brings a people-first approach to public service.  He believes leadership means being present, listening to residents, and turning real neighborhood concerns into real policy action.  His campaign is focused on restoring trust, improving quality of life, and making sure District 3 families are seen, heard, and fought for.

As a business owner, he has created opportunities by hiring directly from the community, keeping resources and income circulating locally.

He is also an experienced event organizer, bringing people together through community-driven events that build unity, visibility, and engagement.

A proud Wilmingtonian, Howard High School & Public Allies alum, Dexter has developed leadership skills grounded in service, collaboration, and social impact.  His experience includes hands-on outreach, connecting residents to resources, and working alongside organizations focused on improving everyday conditions for families in Wilmington and beyond.

Rather than leading from a distance, Dexter’s approach has always been direct and people-centered - showing up, building relationships, and taking action where it matters most.
