without imgur I would've never heard of her - a german imgurian.
stronomer
Specifically she understood the root problem: voter suppression. She understood that if wasn't fixed, then the US democracy was done.
23shopgirl
She is very impressive in many ways! Respect.

Truly, black people just saved America! The same number of whites voted for Trump this time as last. We couldn't do it ourselves.
MuresanDani
Imagine liking Stacey Abrams. Yikes.
Starfury42
Donald Trump did one good thing - he managed to piss people off and motivated them to get him out of office.
WroughtIron
That's true leadership
PDXDragon
She is a hero. Can she do it one more time, for two Senate candidates? Good luck Georgia, and all of us. Thanks Stacey.
WarBearGrrrrrrr
Just like a few before her, she set an example to show, your country & people come first & helped them & set a path for others . (1/2)
WarBearGrrrrrrr
It’s extremely refreshing when people representing public office help the public, knowing they lost their chance, but helped change progress
itsahorse
I have no idea who that is but it sounds great
beaubrent
Props to her but please mention the other people worthy of that praise in Georgia also. Ya’ll act like she the only dem there.
RadicalLeftist
We mention the leader of the movement so we can generate momentum for her next run.

Complete Bullshit.

im sorry people exercising their god given right to vote upsets you

Never forget where you came from. I follow that philosophy at work when training new hires and my coworkers are always so confounded by it.

What an example of how to behave in such situations. She accepted her "loss", kept her head up and put one foot in front of the other.

Fuck yeah! Lived in Georgia for 20 years. Now flip those Senate seats motherfukers!

Went to her wiki page and tried to upvote it :) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stacey_Abrams

I know you're making a joke, but damn that gave me some tech-horror film vibes. The thought of up/downvoting encyclopedia articles, ack.

I usually upvote by pressing plus on the 10 key thing on my keyboard - I just meant I reached for it because I liked it. But yeah.

People need to acknowledge Ahmaud Arbery and BLM too

Stacy Abrahams is my new hero

Let't help her. Two Senate Race Runoffs, January 5, 2021. We can take away Mitchs Power. In Georgia. Please vote again. Please call a Georgi

Georgian here. I'm voting for the one that protects all our rights...so neither of them?
forloss
You don't need to call me. I'm a conservative and I'll be voting against both corrupt republicans.

Sorry, these senate seats have so much impact on the world, on the pandamic, climate change, democracy. I got excited. Sorry.

Jeffrey Wright (the new Commissioner Gordon) retweeted this meme I made of her

Doesn't look like anything to me

I know you have the Presidential Medal, or Congressional Medal or something..for outstanding service ?.... she deserves recognition

The piece of shit is still in charge until the end of January.
TheFunGuyinOz
I was looking to a brighter future for my yank mates...starting 12:01pm January 20, 2021. After that...she can be honored

*Loses election by 50,000 votes* “They stole this from me!” “VOTER SUPPRESSION!!” *GA turns blue for the first time in decades* Nah, we good
FiftyShadesOfArugula
Kemp and his thugs purged 107,000 voters. 70,000 re-registered, a clear sign that they shouldn't have been purged. Why any living eligible…

voter is purged at all, except for the purpose ... https://www.apmreports.org/story/2019/10/29/georgia-voting-registration-records-removed

of minority vote suppression, is beyond me. I can't imagine a legitimate reason. This is the only way the GOP can win, and even that wasn't…
FiftyShadesOfArugula
enough this time. Sad. What a complete loser this Trump guy is. It's utterly embarrassing, isn't it
kojenk
that too he oversaw the same election he was participating as a candidate in. thats some bulshit

Fuck you, Kemp stole her seat and then was complicit in destroying the evidence.

After 300k and 200k voters were purged from the list amongst other disenfranchisement efforts, she worked to get 800k+ educated and relisted
lthead
Helped flip Georgia by registering hundreds of thousands of voters and fight voter suppression
MisterLemons
Patriotism. ACTUAL patriotism.
Nefel
The major driving force behind ensuring low-income and people of color knew their voting rights and how to exercise them in Georgia
IUseSmallBananas4Scale
she lost because the current governor was unethical & made sure black people didn’t couldn’t vote. Karma
Nefel
Basically enfranchised tens, even hundreds of thousands of voters.
sykoticflaw
Over 800,000, at last count, were a direct result of Stacey Abrams.
WellIfIHaveTo
Hundreds of thousands is correct. And she didn’t start after her run for governor, but years before, founded NGP* before Fair Fight.

800,000 voters, so we are in million ballpark.
Nefel
WOW okay that's a lot more than I thought. Her and the people she worked with have done some incredible stuff
usingYourMomAsAHat
Shit. Someone send secret service asap protecting this woman as Republicans prob aren't too happy about that.
khora
I can't think of a better way to get more voter registration than shooting at her.

Yes. This.

2/3 office to deliberately and systematically de-register as many black voters as he could. He stole the goddamn election. So Stacy spent

3/4 the last two years registering literally hundreds of thousands of Georgians, about half of whom were black, and then giving them

4/5 whatever the fuck information and support they needed to get to the polls, or vote absentee, to redeem those ballots when challenged.

Thank you.

5/6 This year, we won Georgia by just a few thousand votes - votes we would not have had without her.
