Just a reminder to everyone who thinks they can make a mark out of Stacey Abrams right now—her discussion of her run for Governor of Georgia was smart and nuanced.
Yes, you can find headlines that say “I won” with her picture.

When you read the article, she says that she won because she demonstrated that she could increase turnout in Georgia dramatically to the point where the state was in play.

Where is the lie in that?
She repeatedly acknowledged that Brian Kemp would be the next governor of Georgia. She never said she knew what would have happened if he hadn’t purged the voter rolls. She said that she does not have empirical proof that it would have definitely swayed the election.
She does say that the process was unfair and she raises big points, but at no point did she file dozens of meritless law suits.

She took the L and went to work.
And she DELIVERED.

I am not here for Stacey Abrams hate or false equivalence. Not today. Not any day.
