Our Newest Endorsement

June 30, 2025

JDCA just endorsed Representative Mikie Sherrill as the next Governor of New Jersey, and now we’re getting to work to win this critical race.

In 2021, Democrats won the New Jersey gubernatorial race by just a few percentage points. Now, Republicans are running the same candidate as in 2021, hoping they can finally win the governor’s mansion, but we won’t let it happen.

New Jersey has one of the largest Jewish populations in the country. The Jewish vote can make the difference in this election, just as the Jewish vote will play a key role in next year’s midterms.

Rep. Sherrill has been fighting for our values in Congress since 2018. Before that, she served in the U.S Navy, as a federal prosecutor, and as a U.S. Naval policy officer. She will fight for us and our values as the next Governor of New Jersey, and we will fight for her to ensure she wins this race.

Here’s what Rep. Sherrill said about JDCA’s endorsement:

Let’s show Republicans the strength of our movement. We won’t let them win. We are going to fight to elect Democrats who stand up for our values.

Thank you for your partnership and support.
