Why Stacey Abrams still won’t concede by kadiatubman
Stacey Abrams lost her 2018 bid for the Georgia governorship last November in a contentious race against then-Georgia Secretary of State Brian Kemp.
Abrams, the former minority leader of the Georgia House of Representatives, said she “certainly was very sad, depressed, angry” after her loss, and has maintained that her campaign “would have come to a successful conclusion” if not for voter suppression. The state board of elections ruled Kemp the victor by fewer than 55,000 votes.
Shortly before the interview, Democrat Jon Ossoff announced his bid to take on Sen. David Perdue, R-Ga., who is set to also run alongside the Republican nominee in a special election for Georgia’s other Senate seat. Sen. Johnny Isakson, R-Ga., is planning on stepping down in December and a temporary replacement with be named until the November elections.
Point No. 2, she said, is:"I believe that any candidate who's willing to be authentic and intentional and invest in every vote, that we can have a Democrat win both seats in 2020."
