Hey — it’s Pete Buttigieg. I’m reaching out to ask you to join me in helping Democratic nominee Mikie Sherrill win the race for New Jersey governor.

This is going to be one of the most hard-fought and expensive races in the entire country in 2025, and it’s less than five months away. I’m going to explain more about why Mikie is the leader New Jersey needs in these difficult times — but if that’s all you need to hear, here’s a link to chip in a few dollars to Mikie’s campaign.

At a time when too many treat politics like a game, Mikie stands out for staying focused on what matters, delivering results and serving others.

As a Navy helicopter pilot, Mikie put herself on the line to serve our nation.

As a representative in Congress, where she won a seat that no one thought was winnable for a Democrat, she’s fought hard for our fundamental freedoms at every turn — and brought home real results to the people of New Jersey.

In fact, I’ve seen her extraordinary effectiveness firsthand. During my time as Secretary of Transportation, I was proud to partner with Mikie to deliver critical federal funding for the Gateway Tunnel project.

And as New Jersey’s next governor, Mikie will work tirelessly to make life easier, safer, and more affordable for working families.

In short, I’m supporting Mikie in this race because she is exactly the kind of leader this moment calls for: a tireless public servant who represents both a new generation of leadership and a record of delivering results.

If you’re with me in supporting Mikie, please get involved and chip in to help her win this election — because the last governor’s race in New Jersey was decided by a tight margin, and she needs all of us standing with her this November.

Thank you,

Pete Buttigieg
