Hi-

We're celebrating historic victories for gun safety during last night's
election, where Gun Sense Candidates handily defeated their gun
lobby-backed extremist opponents. Here are some key takeaways from last
night as we look across the country:

* Virginia: Former Moms Demand Action volunteer Abigail Spanberger was
elected as the first woman governor of the Commonwealth. 13 Moms
Demand Action volunteers were also elected to the Virginia General
Assembly. That means our former volunteers make up 20 percent of the
Virginia House Democratic Caucus.
* New Jersey: Mikie Sherrill won her bid for Governor, helping to ensure
the Garden State continues its great work to end gun violence with
strong, common-sense gun legislation.
* Moms Demand Action volunteers running for office: From Virginia to
Tennessee to Ohio and New York, from school boards to state
legislatures, over one hundred Moms Demand Action volunteers won their
races, showing that this movement's power reaches every level of
government.
* Pennsylvania: Our gun sense majority on the PA Supreme Court remains
intact after all three incumbent justices of our endorsed judges won
their re-election.
* Maine: In a state with a long history of hunting and gun ownership,
voters overwhelmingly supported a ballot referendum to make Maine the
23rd state to adopt a Red Flag law.

These victories send a powerful message that gun safety is a winning issue
and that the Trump administration's chaos and gun extremist MAGA
candidates can't win the votes of Americans. It's concrete proof that when
we pull out all the stops, we can help elect leaders committed to keeping
our families safe.

While Everytown and Moms Demand Action doubled down, the once-powerful gun
lobby was nowhere to be seen. Despite the NRA's claims that they were
"pounding the pavement" and "deploying staff and resources to push pro-gun
candidates in Virginia to victory," as of last week, total NRA spending on
Virginia’s 2025 elections was just over $31,500. Everytown is on track to
outspend them by more than 55-to-1. The NRA was also nowhere to be seen in
New Jersey, where it spent a grand total of $0.00.

Everytown for Gun Safety Action Fund supporters like you helped make this
possible. Together, we knocked doors, made calls, mobilized volunteers,
had the resources to run ads, and showed the country that demanding gun
safety isn't just good policy—it's good politics.

But our work doesn't stop with Election Day. We need to keep building
momentum heading into the year ahead, so we can continue to elect more Gun
Sense Candidates up and down the ballot, fight for stronger gun laws at
all levels of government, and continue our tireless work to save lives
from gun violence.
