John,
In 2019, Mikie Sherrill and Abigail Spanberger were roommates in Washington, D.C. as freshmen congresswomen. Now, they're both running as their states' official Democratic nominees for governor in New Jersey and Virginia.
Abigail and Mikie represent the next generation of Democratic leadership, and they're running in the biggest elections since the presidential election last fall.
Last November, Donald Trump was only six points away from winning New Jersey and just five points away from winning Virginia, so these two races will be incredibly competitive next month.
John, before we tell you more about the stakes in New Jersey and Virginia, will you split a donation between Abigail Spanberger, Mikie Sherrill, and EMILYs List today?
What we do in New Jersey and Virginia will set the trend for 2026, 2028, and beyond. We know that, and so do Republicans.
Donald Trump and his MAGA cronies are scared of Mikie and Abigail, and they're doing everything they can to grab these seats, including unlawfully releasing and weaponizing Mikie's personal military records. It's up to us to take a stand against these MAGA Republican tactics and show them we will not be intimidated.
Abigail and Mikie are ahead in the polls right now, but these next few weeks will be critical to securing their victories. EMILYs List is here to make sure they do it.
