Good for her! You go, girl! (errr, woman)

Voter fraud–yeah, right. Since her opponent in 2018 was then Secretary of State, overseeing an election in which he was a candidate, shenanigans were more likely to come from Kemp than from Abrams.

They did. He ordered all the vote tallying hardware destroyed shortly after the 2018 election.

And the red GA legislature will upend the result if she wins. Never getting certified. Not a chance. And if it ever does, they will proceed with the WI and NC plans of stripping the governor’s office of all meaningful power.

She wasn’t a U.S. Representative. She served in the Georgia House.

semi OT: MA gov Charlie Baker-R will not seek re-election in 2022. Guess he didn’t like the odds or his own party any more. https://www.politico.com/news/2021/12/01/massachusetts-charlie-baker-reelection-523597

Fantastic news! Go kick some ass!

Not if Democrats get serious and grow a spine or two. Of course that’s a big if.

Good luck and godspeed!
