Over the last six months, I’ve put countless hours into making clear why our campaign is the one that can win the Third District in September, and November, and current and former elected officials have taken notice.

From the Governor of Delaware to half of New Castle County Council, from the Mayor of Newark to former state leaders, those who know the challenges the County faces are putting their trust in me to meet the moment and help lead New Castle County into the future.

I’m honored to announce endorsements from a dozen current and former elected officials:

  • Matt Meyer, Governor of Delaware (2025-Present) and former New Castle County Executive (2017-2025)

  • Dennis Greenhouse, Former State Auditor (2022-23, 1983-89) and former New Castle County Executive (1989-97)

  • Brandon Toole, New Castle County Councilman (2022-Present)

  • Janet Kilpatrick, New Castle County Councilwoman (2010-Present)

  • Penrose Hollins, New Castle County Councilman (1990-Present)

  • Valerie George, New Castle County Councilwoman (2022-Present)

  • George Smiley, New Castle County Councilman (2004-Present)

  • Tim Sheldon, New Castle County Councilman (2004-Present)

  • Paul Baumbach, Former State Representative, 23rd District (2013-2025)

  • Travis McDermott, Mayor of Newark (2025-Present), Newark City Councilman (2020-2025)

  • Emile Brown, Newark City Councilman (2025-Present)

  • John Suchanec, Newark City Councilman (2021-Present)

Throughout my career in public service – whether in journalism, non-profit leadership, or working for New Castle County – I’ve been committed to doing the hard work to make real change for my community.

To earn the trust and support of so many leaders in our State and County is humbling and I can’t thank them enough for backing me.

If we’re going to balance the County’s budget without raising taxes on homeowners, if we’re going to reform our tax code to create one that works for the 21st century, if we’re going to control large-scale development like hyper-scale data centers and warehouses, and if we’re going to redevelop abandoned property to meet our housing crisis and save our open and green spaces, it’s going to take experienced leadership to get us there.

We’re just days away from early voting starting on September 2nd, and hundreds of voters have already returned their mail-in ballots.

I’ll keep working to ensure the choice at the polls over the next two weeks is clear not just to our elected leaders, but all the Democratic voters of our district.

Our campaign can and will win in September, and November – and we’ll do that with your support.

See you at the polls!
