Mikie Sherrill net worth: NJ Gov hopeful scored massive gains in stock market; makes whopping salary
Quiver Quantitative reported in May 2025 that Sherill has a net worth of $10.2 million.
Quiver Quantitative estimates Sherrill's net worth at $10.2 million, ranking her 81st in Congress. The trading platform further added that her net worth includes $3.9 million in publicly traded assets. Her net worth was $9.7 million on April 21, 2025, reflecting a $326.5K stock market gain in the prior month.
When asked about making $7 million in stock trades, she denied citing her husband's financial activities and broad asset categories.
The New Jersey Monitor reported that Rep Sherrill and her husband, a broker, reported roughly $3.2 million in income for 2024. The publication cited their tax returns to further add that the couple reported $114,970 in dividend income from index and exchange-traded funds.
Members of Congress are paid a $174,000 salary.
Rep Sherrill will now face Republican Jack Ciattarelli, who had President Donald Trump's endorsement. In a victory speech, she criticized Ciattarelli as a 'lackey' of the president's, invoked New Jersey's role in the American Revolution and hinted at the state's role as one of just two holding a race for governor a year after the presidential election.
'New Jersey once again stands at the front lines," she said. 'We are in an American crisis, but not in a war for independence but a fight for our future.'

Not only Hindus, need nationalist Muslims as well, says new Bengal BJP chief
Kolkata: The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)'s new West Bengal president Samik Bhattacharya on Sunday urged the 'open-minded, progressive, nationalist Muslims' to join hands with the party in the upcoming state polls to counter radicalisation and the 'silent war to change the demographic character of India'— a statement that invited sharp reaction from the ruling Trinamool Congress. BJP West Bengal President Samik Bhattacharya garlands a bust of Shyama Prasad Mukherjee on his birth anniversary in Kolkata on Sunday. (ANI) 'Radicalisation has spread everywhere but nobody can split Bengal again. A silent war is on since the 80's to change the demographic character of India. To counter this, we need not only Hindus but nationalist Muslims as well. The coming election is a test for Bengal's open-minded, progressive, nationalist Muslims,' Bhattacharya said, paying tribute to party ideologue Shyama Prasad Mookerjee, whose contribution in creation of West Bengal during Partition is hailed by the saffron camp, on his birth anniversary. Earlier on July 3, minutes after being declared president of the state unit, Bhattacharya had said: 'We need to protect and nurture the pluralistic character of West Bengal. Let Muharram and Durga puja immersion processions take place together. Muslims need to understand that BJP is not against them. We are only against those who have picked up stones and swords. We want to put books and pens in their hands instead.' 'Don't vote for the BJP if you think it is untouchable but face the mirror. At least 90 % of the people killed in clashes in recent years in Bengal were Muslims,' he had added. TMC spokesperson Jay Prakash Majumdar on Sunday hit out at Bhattacharya. 'Bhattacharya has come up with a new recipe. He is trying to reach out to not only the Muslims but to the Left and Congress as well. One of his party leaders has taken the opposite line. The elections will be over by the time BJP clears its confusion. It will be left with no seats,' he said. He was referring to BJP's Suvendu Adhikari, the leader of the opposition in the assembly, who has been prescribing since January that his party should ignore Muslims and focus entirely on Hindu votes for the 2026 polls– a view that has not been endorsed by the BJP national leadership. The Congress also slammed Bhattacharya over his remark. Former state Congress president Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury said, 'BJP's appeal to the Muslims is a tactical move. Their real target is to form a Hindu rashtra (nation) where Muslims will be treated as secondary citizens.' The BJP has been alleging for years that TMC chairperson and chief minister Mamata Banerjee allows illegal Bangladeshi migrants to settle down only to secure their votes. The party has focused on this narrative ever since crackdown on alleged illegal migrants began in BJP-ruled states a few months ago. According to surveys done by all parties, Muslim, who comprise around 30% of the state's population and are widely seen as the TMC's vote bank, play a decisive role in at least 120 of Bengal's 294 assembly seats, of which BJP could win only 75 in 2021. BJP fielded nine Muslim candidates but none could win. TMC, on the other hand, has 42 Muslim MLAs. Described as BJP's 'official party line' by state leaders, including former state president Sukanta Majumdar, Bhattacharya's strategy is being seen as a move to encourage Muslims to vote against TMC rather than for BJP. 'Not all Muslims are happy with the TMC regime. Lack of local employment forces millions of them to look for work in other states. Bhattarcharya's appeal may create a split in Muslim votes. Even if these votes go to the Left or Congress, BJP will be the ultimate beneficiary,' a senior state BJP leader said, requesting anonymity. He cited examples such as Murshidabad district, where Muslims comprise 66.28 % of the population, the state's highest, Congress won the Sagardighi assembly bypoll in 2023. TMC had to make the winner switch camps months later. In 2021, Muslims helped Nawsad Siddiqui's Indian Secular Front win the Bhangar seat in North 24 Parganas. 'In the recent assembly bypoll at Nadia district's Kaliganj, Muslim families that voted for CPI(M) were targeted by TMC workers. A 10-year-old child died in a bomb attack. TMC is wary about the minority community,' the leader added. Accusing the BJP of selectively targeting Bengali-speaking Muslims from her state, chief minister Mamata Banerjee has countered the allegations of partisan politics saying she treats people from all faiths equally. On Sunday, she also paid tributes to Mookerjee in a social media post, drawing flak from the Congress. Taking a jibe at her, Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury said: 'It is not surprising that Banerjee has paid tributes to Mookerjee. She always says good things about the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS). Have you ever seen her criticising its chief Mohan Bhagwat?'

RJD challenges Bihar voter list revision in Supreme Court, ‘initial phase completed,' says Election Commission
The Election Commission on July 6 asserted that Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in Bihar was 'being implemented smoothly at the ground level' and 'there is no change in instructions." The poll panel also said that the initial phase of the revision exercise, during which enumeration forms were to be printed and distributed, is almost complete with the forms having been made available to all the electors who were available. The panel reiterated that the SIR is being conducted as per the instructions dated June 24, and there has been no change in the instructions. 'As per instructions, draft electoral rolls that will be issued on 1 August 2025 will contain the names of persons whose enumeration forms are received,' it said. On behalf of RJD, the party's Rajya Sabha MP, Manoj Jha, has challenged in the Supreme Court the Election Commission of India's move, in which the Commission has directed the immediate implementation of the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of the voter list across Bihar, a few months before the assembly elections, news agency ANI said. On Saturday, election watchdog Association for Democratic Reforms(ADR) moved a petition in the Supreme Court challenging the Special Intensive Revision of the electoral roll in Bihar. The plea argues that the ECI's order is arbitrary and could potentially lead to the disenfranchisement of millions of voters. The EC began the exercise on June 25 across Bihar, to what it called 'weed out ineligible names' and ensure 'only eligible citizens' are included in the electoral roll. The EC made it clear on Sunday that while voters were required to "submit their documents anytime before July 25, 2025", those who failed to do so would get an opportunity "during the Claims & Objections period also". The EC also urged people to "beware of statements being made by a few persons, who without reading the SIR order dated 24 June 2025.... are attempting to confuse the public with their incorrect and misleading statements". The clarification comes in the wake of several social media posts, including one by Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge, about an EC advertisement published in a newspaper claiming "now only forms are to be filled. There is no need to submit documents". Alleging that the SIR was a "conspiracy by BJP-RSS to snatch away the voting rights of Dalits and other deprived sections", Kharge had said that the BJP, which ruled the Centre and shared power in Bihar, "is now getting trapped in its own master plan". Echoing Kharge's post on X, Bihar Congress president Rajesh Kumar alleged at a press conference: "The ad exposes the incompetence of the EC and gives rise to doubts of unethical help extended to the ruling party". Assembly polls are due in Bihar in a couple of months, and the EC exercise, which seeks to cover nearly eight crore voters by July 25, has become a major bone of contention in the state. Leader of the opposition in the state assembly, Tejashwi Yadav, has questioned why, unlike the previous revision which took place in 2003 across the country, the current exercise was being carried out only in Bihar. INDIA bloc leaders have also held parleys with EC officials in New Delhi and Patna to share their anxieties. However, the BJP-led NDA defended the exercise, accusing the opposition of trying to come up with an "excuse ahead of a certain defeat in elections". 'As of today, at 6.00 PM, 1,69,49,208 Enumeration Forms i.e. 21.46 per cent of the total of 7,89,69,844 (nearly 7.90 crore) electors in Bihar who are enrolled as on June 24, 2025, have been received. In the last 24 hours i.e. from 6.00 PM yesterday, 65,32,663 Enumeration Forms have been collected. There are still 19 days to go for the last date for submission of forms,' the poll panel said on Sunday. Bihar's state Chief Electoral Officer said on Sunday: "SIR in Bihar is progressing as per ECI's order dated 24 June 2025. As per that order, the draft electoral rolls that will be issued on 1 August 2025 will contain the names of the existing electors whose enumeration forms are received". "All measures are being taken to facilitate the existing electors to complete the documentation. These existing voters will have time to submit the documents even after first submitting their Enumeration Forms. All activities are exactly as per ECI's order dated 24.06.2025," said the CEO in another post. Shortly afterwards, "EC sources" were quoted in another, more strongly worded statement, shared by the poll panel in its WhatsApp group. The statement said, 'SIR in Bihar is being implemented smoothly at the ground level. SIR is being conducted as per instructions dated 24.06.2025 only, and there is no change in the instructions.' According to the EC, the exercise was necessitated by rapid urbanisation, frequent migration, young citizens becoming eligible to vote, non-reporting of deaths, and the inclusion of the names of foreign illegal immigrants. The SIR was a conspiracy by BJP-RSS to snatch away the voting rights of Dalits and other deprived sections. The poll panel said it wants to ensure the integrity and preparation of error-free electoral rolls through the exercise.

‘Crime new normal' in Bihar: Rahul Gandhi slams BJP, Nitish Kumar over Patna businessman's murder
Days after the fatal shooting of businessman Gopal Khemka in Patna, senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi criticised the BJP and Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, accusing them of turning the state into 'India's crime capital.' Gandhi, who also serves as Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha, condemned the state government's handling of law and order and called for change in government ahead of the upcoming Assembly elections. 'The brazen murder of businessman Gopal Khemka in Patna has once again proven — the BJP and Nitish Kumar together have turned Bihar into 'India's crime capital,'' Gandhi wrote on X (formerly Twitter) in Hindi. 'Today, Bihar lives in the shadow of loot, gunfire, and murder. Crime has become the 'new normal' here — and the government is utterly ineffective,' he added. पटना में व्यवसायी गोपाल खेमका की सरेआम गोली मारकर हत्या ने एक बार फिर साबित कर दिया है – भाजपा और नीतीश कुमार ने मिलकर बिहार को 'भारत की क्राइम कैपिटल' बना दिया है। आज बिहार लूट, गोली और हत्या के साए में जी रहा है। अपराध यहां 'नया नॉर्मल' बन चुका है – और सरकार पूरी तरह नाकाम।… — Rahul Gandhi (@RahulGandhi) July 6, 2025 Khemka, the owner of Magadh Hospital, who was also reportedly affiliated with the BJP, was shot dead late Friday night near his residence in the Gandhi Maidan area of Patna, according to the police. Khemka's elder son, Gunjan Khemka, was murdered six years ago in a similar manner in Vaishali district. The incident occurred in the run-up to the Assembly elections and amid galvanised criticism from the Opposition against the Nitish Kumar-led BJP-JD(U) government for allegedly failing to maintain law and order in the state. Gandhi said the state government which cannot 'ensure the safety of your children cannot be entrusted with your future either,' and urged voters for a change in dispensation in the upcoming Assembly elections in November. 'Every murder, every loot, every bullet — is a cry for change. Now is the time for a new Bihar — where there is no fear, only progress. This time, the vote is not just to change the government, but to save Bihar,' he wrote on X. Earlier, RJD leader and former deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav had tweeted: 'Massacre in Bihar! Six people shot in Siwan! Three died on the spot! Under the leadership of an unconscious Chief Minister, law and order have collapsed!'
