Abrams: I Did Not Challenge 2018 Election by Refusing to Concede — I Challenged an Unfair System
Breitbart ^ | 12/02/2021 | Pam Key

Georgia Democratic gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams said Thursday on MSNBC’s “The Rachel Maddow Show” that, unlike former President Donald Trump, she did not challenge the results of the 2018 election, which she lost to Republican Brian Kemp and refused to concede amid allegations of voter suppression.

Maddow said, “When you ran in 2018, part of the reason we covered the race so intently is because the candidates are both very interesting people, present company included. But also because there was a disturbing dynamic in that race which was that your Republican opponent who went on to win the race was secretary of state at the time and was engaged in really aggressive what appeared to be voter suppression tactics, including throwing huge numbers of Georgians off the voting rolls in a way that seemed to benefit his own candidacy in which he was on the ballot. When you so narrowly lost, you famously were contentious about the loss, saying he didn’t necessarily think it had been a fair fight. Stepping back now a few years out of that, and seeing what’s happened both in Georgia and around the country around the issues of fairness in elections, how do you feel about that now looking back at it and how do you want people to understand how that dynamic affected the race the first time?”

It is time to forgo good manners in dealing with these communist anti-American White-hating filth that are destroying this country. We need to express outrage and real opposition.

She is a shoe-in to win this election ... the Republicans have not solved the voter fraud issues in Georgia that gave the Dems the Senate.

You can retain your manners and still do what must be done.
