Gov. Josh Shapiro (D-PA) urged Democrats on Wednesday to move beyond anti-Trump messaging and focus on delivering results for voters.

At Rev. Al Sharpton’s National Action Network convention, Shapiro laid out what he believes Democrats must do to win back voters ahead of the midterm elections and beyond. Shapiro, who is up for reelection this year, said 2026 had the possibility to be “a national referendum on Donald Trump” that boosts turnout even in noncompetitive states.
