New Jersey LCV Congratulates Congresswoman Mikie Sherrill on her Primary Win in Governor’s Race
New Jersey LCV Executive Director, Ed Potosnak, issued the following statement in response to the results in tonight’s primary race for Governor in New Jersey.
“Congratulations to Environmental Champion and New Jersey LCV endorsee Congresswoman Mikie Sherrill and her team on a hard-fought and well-deserved primary victory! New Jersey LCV endorsed Mikie because she’s committed to preserving our precious remaining open spaces, removing harmful pollution from our water, and rapidly expanding in state clean energy generation and tonight we are confident New Jersey feels that way, too. Mikie is the strongest candidate to take on Jack Ciattarelli and to fight for the values New Jerseyans care about: clean air and water, preserving open space, lower energy costs, and taking bold action on climate change. We look forward to continuing our partnership with Mikie to achieve a 100% clean energy future by 2035 and hold polluters accountable.”
New Jersey LCV Victory Fund launched a significant communications campaign to help elect Congresswoman Mikie Sherrill. The Victory Fund invested upwards of $175,000 in paid communications to likely voters in the Democratic gubernatorial primary, which included digital ads, tens of thousands of mail pieces to over 35,000 households throughout the state (Essex, Hudson, Union, Bergen, Monmouth, Mercer, Middlesex) and we ran a 15 second digital ad in (Essex, Hudson, Union, and Middlesex) that received over 2 million impressions using pre-roll, targeted CTV, and YouTube, and knocked on hundreds of doors.
