John,

Every four years, the New Jersey and Virginia gubernatorial races help us gauge voter sentiment exactly one year ahead of the midterms. This year, Democrats are looking toward these elections for a roadmap and statewide wins are critical for Democrats. 

That’s why we are thrilled to have Rep. Mikie Sherrill running for governor of New Jersey and Rep. Abigail Spanberger running for governor of Virginia — and we have some exciting polling updates for you today on both of these competitive races!

• More than a DOZEN surveys conducted by the campaigns and by independent pollsters show Rep. Sherrill up with a slim lead against her GOP opponent.

• According to polls conducted this month, Rep. Spanberger is consistently leading Republican Lieutenant Governor Winsome Earle-Sears.

We don’t need to wait until 2026 to make an impact. We know that what we do in the next 45 days impacts what happens on November 4th – and what happens on November 4th impacts what happens in 2026. 

We’ve shared with you why this matters. Now we need you to lean in with us to make sure that Rep. Sherrill and Rep. Spanberger can keep up the momentum to become the next governors of New Jersey and Virginia. Can you chip in anything today to help them get there? Donate now! >>

Your support means everything.
