Democratic governors are leading in the fight against Donald Trump. With our two historic victories in Virginia and New Jersey, grassroots momentum is on our side! But next year, nearly 80% of the country is voting for a governor – and with Republicans already investing to beat Dem govs, early support has never been so critical.

DGA Congratulates Governor Dayton on his Reelection
WASHINGTON, DC – Vermont Governor Peter Shumlin, Chair of the Democratic Governors Association, tonight issued the following statement on the reelection of Governor Mark Dayton:
“On behalf of Democratic governors, I’d like to congratulate Governor Mark Dayton on his victory tonight. Because of his strong, decisive leadership, Governor Dayton turned a $6 billion deficit into a surplus with $150 million in the state’s rainy day fund, and created over 150,000 new private-sector jobs. Governor Dayton raised the minimum wage, cut taxes for middle-class families, and provided free, universal access to all-day kindergarten. With the next four years, Governor Dayton will continue his lifelong work of strengthening the middle class and expanding economic opportunity to all.”
