Ex-Navy Pilot Starts PAC To Fly Democrats Back To Center—And Hope

KEY POINTS

  • Governor Mikie Sherrill launched the 'Mission to Deliver' hybrid PAC to support Democrats in the upcoming 2026 midterms.
  • She plans to back candidates focused on lowering costs and public service, reflecting her priorities from the 2025 New Jersey gubernatorial campaign.
  • Sherrill will campaign nationally, targeting House, Senate, and gubernatorial races, even entering competitive Democratic primaries to push moderates.

New Jersey’s Governor Mikie Sherrill, who transitioned from Navy helicopter pilot to political air traffic controller, is launching a PAC called 'Mission to Deliver' with aims to parachute cash and campaign swagger to doomed Democrats before the 2026 midterms. After her 2025 gubernatorial race focused obsessively on lowering costs and public service — because nothing screams political motivation like budget spreadsheets — she’s now prepping for a cross-country barnstorming tour to rescue moderate Dem candidates from being vaporized by their own party’s left wing. She spills that support targets include House, Senate, and governor hopefuls daring to tango in primaries, all aimed to stand up against the ‘reckless Trump administration’—even though he left office months ago. Somewhere, Fleetwood Mac’s dream of 'go your own way' just became the Democratic Party’s battle hymn.
