Stacey Abrams announced she would not challenge Rep. Senator David Perdue for his seat next year. “I am announcing today that I will not be be a candidate for the U.S. Senate,” Abrams said in a video posted to Twitter Tuesday morning. “The fights to be wages require a deep commitment to the job, and I do not see the U.S. Senate as the best role for me in this battle for our nation’s future.” Abrams decision to drop out of consideration for a Senate seat raises speculation that she could still be planning on adding her name to the crowded field of Democrats running for president in 2020.
Schumer tapped Abrams earlier this year to give the rebuttal to President Donald Trump's State of the Union address to Congress in an attempt to generate enthusiasm for a possible Senate run. Even though she won’t be running for the Senate, Abrams said she is committed to getting a Democrat to unseat the Republican incumbent. “But let’s be clear,” Abrams, who previously served as a state legislative leader in Georgia, continued in the video, “I will do everything in my power to ensure Georgia elects a Democrat to the United States Senate in 2020.”
Abrams said earlier in April that she was still considering running for president, but would likely hold off making a decision until Labor Day weekend or later.
'I don't think you actually have to make a decision about the White House before the fall,' she told MSNBC on April 4. If Abrams were to wait until then to launch her campaign, three Democratic presidential debates would have already taken place – one in June, July and a third in August. The fourth debate is scheduled for September.

She already knows she cant be Prez, so she’s angling for VP. And she’ll get it. Choosing Abrams for VP satisfies those in the party who demand a woman/minority on the ticket, its perfect cover for Bidens sexual harrassment issues, it guarantees the female and minority vote, and worst of all, its nearly a slam dunk for getting Georgia’s electoral votes. Yes, she’s an idiot but she has the media to run interference for her, just like they did with Obama for 8 years.
Is she a LESBIAN?? She is one fugly person.....the PERFECT DEMOCRAT!!~
All good points!
Right!! Wasn’t she DELIQUENT in her taxes?
She had some sort of business where she withheld the taxes on her employees and then rather than sending the withheld money to the IRS spent the money on herself - probably on BBQ
I tried to get around to Stacey’s good side but I ran out of gas.
She’s about 3 donuts short of an event horizon!
Democrat presidential field increases by 5 percent, 30 percent by mass.
She blowed up like a tick on Dracula!
Food is better at the White House?
I hate clowns.
Even as a kid....................
She’s already governor! You can’t have two jobs, right?
I’m not very fond of them either.
They are the essence of duplicity.
Arrogant racist bitch
BS
Abrams would not make Georgia go left....
even O’Bambi couldn’t do that.
She lost the Georgia governor race by one point! So Georgia already proved they’re willing to go left.
