Stacey Abrams, the former Democratic gubernatorial nominee in Georgia, said that she would be happy to run as a vice presidential candidate.
Abrams told an audience at the University of Iowa on Monday that shed be open to running for vice president alongside the Democratic nominee in the general election, the Daily Iowan reported.
The former gubernatorial candidate also quashed rumors about being offered a spot on Democratic White House hopeful Joe Biden's ticket in 2020, according to the university newspaper.
But when I got the question [from reporters] I was, myself, contemplating my next steps, she said. And what I said was, you do not run in a primary for second place, so no, for whatever rumors are out there.
However, Im not in the primary, but you can run as second in the general election, and I am happy to do so with the nominee. That is my answer, she added.
Abrams never conceded the race against current Republican Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp. After her candidacy, she founded Fair Fight, an organization aimed to defending voter rights and access in elections.
Mondays event at the university celebrated 100 years of womens suffrage, according to the Daily Iowan.
The Hill reached out to Fair Fight for Abramss comments on her statements Monday.
Gravyass?
What a coincidence. I’d be happy to be coronated as Holy Roman Emperor.
To... “run?”
Better calibrate the seismology gear, then.
I would be calling my P&C agent and making sure there is an earthquake rider on my homeowners policy.
Clearly, if whoever ends up being the frontrunner/nominee doesn’t enlist her for the VP role, they will be some kind of hater, racist, sexist, misogynist, etc. Because she has repeatedly offered to be the VP on the ticket.
Bol.......better.
This thing would be happy to run. Period.
You do realize that any negative comments will be deemed racist. No excuses. Same rules that applied to obama. Except more so.
Airforce 2 doesn’t have the lift capacity and the cargo bays are not big enough.
I got away with it by only criticizing Obama’s white half.
So, someone who has never won a statewide race in her home state, and who’s claim to fame is basically complaining she was cheated in her statewide race would be “happy” to be a VP Candidate?
I should think so... quite a bump up from her last political position of minority leader of GA...
I hear tell Danny Bonaduce would be “happy” to be a VP candidate too....
Go Home Stacy, you’re drunk.... basically the angry black woman version of Beto...
She was lost on the DC Beltway (I-495) and needed to get on the BW Parkway so she exited and stopped at a convenience store asking the clerk how she could get to 295. The clerk said “Strict diet and a lot of exercise.”
I will likewise get away with criticizing her by only criticizing the hippo half.
Yeah, that is what I thought. Probably hasn't run since 3rd grade.
Must need a job.
Colloquial humor.....hun!
I think even jogging would be difficult for her.
The Hillary Clinton bug has bitten another demented Democrat.
