Emily, I am so honored to be the governor-elect for the great state of New Jersey. But I didn't do it alone. I want to thank everyone who played a part in this victory — I wouldn't be here without this incredible grassroots team who chipped in, volunteered, and voted, as well as my team, my family, and my running mate, Dr. Dale Caldwell. New Jersey has sent a message that will be heard across the country, and the world. As you might imagine, I've been reflecting a lot on what that message is, and I keep coming back to New Jersey's state motto: Liberty and Prosperity. As we see our government at the federal level backing away from liberty, we here in New Jersey are bound to fight for a different future for our children. But liberty alone isn't good enough if the government makes it impossible for you to feed your family, or get a good education, or a good job. That doesn't seem like too much to ask, but right now, all of it seems at risk. Governors have never mattered more. I have heard from thousands of New Jerseyans about liberty and prosperity. And I intend to deliver. I'm going to take care of your kids, drive down your costs, and deliver a government that doesn't just manage problems, it solves them. I'm going to build on New Jersey's great legacy of innovation that changes the world, relentless advocacy for a better future, and a stubborn refusal to bow down to kings for 250 years running. That's the course we're charting for the entire nation, and if you're reading this email, you were a part of it. Now, it's up to us to keep charting that course forward. If you can, I hope you'll consider contributing to the DNC today to help elect more Democrats across the country. Thank you for loving this country and this state enough to fight for it. Sincerely, Mikie Sherrill

  | An update for Democrats nationwide Emily, please don't skip this 1-minute read. This week, Democrats in every corner of the country won or overperformed up and down the ballot, with high voter turnout across the map. If one thing is crystal clear this week, it's that voters are sick and tired of Trump and his allies' billionaire-first agenda and are ready for the tides to turn. In New Jersey, Virginia, Pennsylvania, California, Georgia, and in local races nationwide, Americans sent a message to Trump this week: We're fed up with your attacks on our democracy, our economy, and our communities. We're fighting back. And we're winning. At the DNC, we've spent the last year organizing in every single state across the country, hosting town halls where Republicans refuse to, and investing in state Democratic parties to ensure that they have the resources to do this important work across their states. But Emily, the work doesn't stop here — in fact, our fight is only getting started. If continuing the momentum we built this year is important to you, we're asking you to consider donating $7, or whatever you can, to the DNC today.

| Emily, This week, Democrats swept races across the country, from New York City to Virginia to New Jersey to Pennsylvania to California to Georgia to Maine, and ever since, thousands of Democrats from all over the country have been pitching in to support the DNC. These are donations we can put to work immediately to win back Congress in the midterms and prevent another two years of Trump with unchecked power. If you're ready to flip the House and Senate, then we're asking you to pitch in $7 today to help us send a powerful message to Trump and his allies: This week's victories weren't a fluke, and we're coming for you in the midterms. You can use this link to help send that message, loud and clear. Take a look at the donations we've received — wow!  Every single dot on this map represents a person stepping up to help us build on our momentum and lay the groundwork to win critical races across the country next year. Now, they're hoping you'll do the same — especially right now. What do you say? Can you please make a $7 contribution to support the DNC today? We'll put your contribution to work immediately, laying the groundwork to take back Congress. If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly.

| Emily, How do you feel right now? Knowing that Democrats won big across the country this week? Knowing that — together — we delivered a stunning rebuke of Trump, his cronies, his hideous ballroom, and his harmful policies? We feel pretty good. Now the question is: If you knew that chipping in $7 to the DNC right now would help us feel this way again on November 4, 2026 — the day after Election Day — wouldn't it be the best $7 you've ever spent? The truth is that Democrats were only able to deliver big wins this week because grassroots supporters stepped up and chipped in. If we want to win even bigger in the midterm elections and put a major check on Donald Trump's power in January of 2027, we can't let this momentum slow. Not even for a second. So, Emily, will you chip in $7 today to help us carry this momentum straight into the midterms? Your donation will help us build the infrastructure we need to win — up and down the ballot in all 50 states. If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly.

Remember this feeling: | Emily, The tide is turning. Democrats just won critical elections nationwide — showing Donald Trump and the entire Republican Party that we are not done fighting.  Abigail Spanberger made history last night as the first woman to be elected governor of Virginia. As governor, Spanberger will make Virginia safer and more affordable, invest in law enforcement and education, and boost economic development in the commonwealth. And that wasn't the only big win. Democrats swept races across the country, from New York City to New Jersey to Pennsylvania to California to Georgia to Maine. Across the map, we put up strong candidates, ran strategic campaigns, and drove high Democratic turnout with a relentless focus on what matters most to people — affordability and kitchen table issues. With these victories, we will enter 2026 with strong momentum, and we're just getting started. Today is the day that all of us must shift our attention to replicating this week's wins and taking back Congress. Not tomorrow, not next week, but today. Will you turn your excitement into action with a $7 contribution to help us lay the groundwork to take back Congress next year, and ultimately win the White House in 2028?

One year ago, I got the call that I was not going to win the election. I walked down the stairs to my family in shock. All I could do was repeat, over and over, "What will happen to our country?" As I have heard these last few months from people across our nation and around the world, many of you felt the same way. Over the past year, we have seen Donald Trump use the presidency to line his own pockets and enrich billionaires; target SNAP, Medicaid, and programs for our veterans; terrorize our immigrant communities; deteriorate our national security; and put our economy at risk of recession. I could go on. And I fear it may get worse before it gets better. I predicted all of it. I warned of it. What I did not predict: the capitulation. The number of people who have bent the knee at the foot of a tyrant has been profound. So what do we do, Emily? The answer for how to move forward will not come out of Washington, D.C.. The change that we want and the improvement that we need must come from the people. And the people are already speaking. Millions of Americans have taken to the streets in protest out of love of our country and belief in its promise. Millions more headed to the polls on Tuesday to resoundingly elect local Democratic leaders who will fight for progress in their communities. We must harness that power to come up with a blueprint for our government that truly works for the American people. We must continue speaking out and listening when the people say, "This is how I want my government to work for me." My work now is focused on amplifying those voices and uplifting the next generation of leaders as we continue this fight. We have some serious work to do to reimagine our vision for our country, and I need you with me, Emily. So I am humbly asking: Will you mark one year into this next chapter by making a donation to support my work today? Every donation sends a powerful message that the people will not give up on our country. If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly: We will not retreat from this fight. It may take a while, but the fight for our country is always worth it. And we will win.
