Friend,
The once unthinkable happened -- Georgia turned blue. And as POLITICO reports, we owe our gratitude to Stacey Abrams and the network of activists who have been planning this for nearly a decade:
“The people leading the effort to flip the state -- a group composed of Black female elected officials, voting rights advocates and community organizers -- understood why Democrats had often fallen short in the South the past decade. Topping the list of reasons: the region’s long-running conservative bent, voter suppression tactics by the right and the failure by Democrats to mount a sustained voter outreach program.”
And as Abrams recently told MSNBC, Democrats everywhere must help enact her strategy of reaching out to voters across the state of Georgia to assure them their voices matter, educating voters about why control of the Senate is important, and motivating as much turnout as possible for the runoff Senate elections in January.
But we know Donald Trump -- desperate to steal Biden’s victory -- will try anything to ensure his base in Georgia will doubt the legitimacy of the election and turn out in droves for the Senate runoffs on January 5 in retribution.
There’s so much work to be done to ensure that Stacey Abrams’ incredible work builds even more momentum. We need to know EXACTLY the number of supporters who will be joining us, so please, tell us now:
Do you stand with Stacey Abrams?
Thank you for standing with us,
