Sussex County Dems Go for Mikie Sherrill

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.”

    200 people at the Sussex County Democrat convention to support Mikie Sherrill??? That must the total number of Democrats in Sussex County. Everyone needs to vote against Sherrill. She's a "Trojan Horse". She voted with the Biden Administration 100% of the time. She gave us the highest inflation since Carter. She voted to support $7 TRILLION DOLLARS in spending when revenue collected from all taxpayers was the highest ever--$5 TRILLION DOLLARS!!!!!! She supported putting 87,000 IRS agents to work to audit ALL OF US, to squeeze every dime out of us so the Democrats could continue their fraudulent, racketeering spending at USAID, HHS, Social Security fraud (where over 24 MILLION people over 100 years old receive Social Security checks, including one (1) who is 360 years old). She voted for the American (COVID) Recovery Act that gave money to every Democrat NGO or project around the world. That was $4 TRILLION DOLLARS that was not accounted for. She voted for the Infrastructure Bill, another $2-$3 TRILLION DOLLARS that produced no infrastructure repairs. She voted to keep giving Ukraine $350 BILLION DOLLARS in aid (half of it in cash that went to Zelenskyy's estate in the U.K. and other homes around the world, plus gold bars to Switzerland; and money to his friends to buy their real estate around the world, buy new, expensive foreign cars, e.g., Mercedes, Rolls-Royce, BMWs, etc.). Now, Zelenskyy says he cannot account for 50% of the $350 BILLION DOLLARS we gave him to prosecute his failing war against Russia. And, let's not forget that Mikie Sherrill and her family made their fortunes on the backs of the slaves they owned in North Carolina and Virginia, before, during and after the Civil War.

    Sherrill is such a breath of fresh air.

  3. Michael+F+Schnackenberg says:

    John, you're a dickhead. There were about 200 or so people at the convention (including non-voting members). If you weren't there, STFU.

  4. John says:

    All 3 Dems in Sussex endorsed her, big deal!

  5. Jeff Yannetta says:

    If you really want to help NJ and help make a change, stop fighting Trump and start helping his policies make the change we asked for. NJ has been blue way too long. Way to much spending in the wrong places with people lining their pockets instead of helping schools and communities

  6. Harry Marker Jr. says:

    Just what Socialist, corruption plagued NJ needs. Another Rubber stamp Democrat who only cares about pushing their tax and spend agenda. The Fed gov needs to investigate the voting system in NJ because I know more and more people have woken up and now understand the lies and corruption that has infested the State of NJ. You Dems have tried to destroy the man who wants the best America for ALL Americans. Hes not like you progressive 5th columnists, he is actually cleaning up the corruption that your party has been implementing sincd the 1950's.

  7. Dan says:

    Lets hope we can keep men out of girls bathrooms and stop pushing pride agendas in school. Its the reason Dems lost my vote. The economy is important, europe is important, but children should always come first.

  8. EMM says:

    Now take every student seriously. New Jersey ranks #25 in the nation for educating its lower socioeconomic student population and it ranks the sixth most segregated school system in the nation. The Latino Action Network brought a lawsuit against New Jersey claiming segregation- and the unfair access to good schools - it is scheduled to go to trail. These students are New Jerseys future workforce, and many can’t read or do math proficiency . True reparations is an opportunity to a great education. We protest the rights for all students in one breath and in the next breath - BUT NOT IN MY SCHOOL! This is not a Trump problem. This is a long standing New Jersey problem. Our next governor will need to address this fact with a solid plan, because all others governors kicked this can down the road. This is no longer about “ Our Chance” rather this is “Our Duty.”

  9. Diane Dunn says:

    Mikie, Onward to gather every great American possible to defeat these awful Republicans. We have to fight TOGETHER -- the sooner the better. Too much unconstitutional actions already!!!!

  10. Michael+F+Schnackenberg says:

    Pamela, I'm with you 100%. I was at the convention today and the enthusiasm and determination to make a change is overwhelming.

  11. Pamela Gray says:

    Congratulations Mikie. Let’s ban together to protect the lives of our American people as well as our European neighbors and allies. Let’s help the Ukrainian people and stand up for what is right. I’m so disillusioned with the state of our White House and what the President and Vice President have done in such short order.
