Today, Mikie Sherrill released the following statement after overwhelmingly winning the Sussex County Democratic Convention with nearly 90% of the vote — her fourth victory this month:
“Sussex County Democrats know we have to win this November, and I’m so grateful for their support. Back when I flipped a district in 2018, grassroots Democrats in Sussex put in the work to help us take that seat, because that’s how we build broad coalitions in tough areas and get to work on issues that matter to our local communities. The only way to beat the Republicans in November is by showing up everywhere and taking every voter seriously — that’s how I’ve turned a red district blue and helped Democrats up and down the ballot win. New Jersey is ready for a different kind of leadership in Trenton. Together, we can stand up to the chaos and corruption in Trump’s Washington and chart a new path forward here in New Jersey where everyone can get ahead.”
