Abrams: Voting Rights Push Not ‘Partisanship’ But ‘Patriotism’

Wednesday on MSNBC’s Morning Joe, failed Georgia gubernatorial candidate and voter fraud enthusiast Stacey Abrams declared that the push to expand voting rights “is not about partisanship,” but “is about patriotism.”

“I’m working very closely with members of the U.S. Senate to ensure that they both understand the urgency of the moment but that we recognize the complications of the structure of the Senate,” Abrams stated. “And that’s why we need to frame this as restoration of the Senate. This is not about breaking tradition. It is about protecting the fundamentals of our nation.”

“[W] hat’s most important is that we stop framing this as a partisan battle. This is not about partisanship. This is about patriotism,” she added. “It’s about American citizens, regardless of who they choose when they enter the booth, that they have the ability to participate in our elections. And that, on the other side, that their votes are actually counted by those who are responsible for determining and announcing the outcome of elections. This is about protecting voters but also about protecting the foundation of our democracy and not allowing it to be subverted by those who would erase the voices of the people in order to achieve their political ends.”

Abrams and the Democrats care nothing about “the fundamentals of our nation.” Their push to “expand voting rights” is 100 percent partisan and is actually a push to expand voter fraud, which is the only way Democrats can expect to win elections anymore. It’s how they “erased the voices of the people in order to achieve their political ends” to take the 2020 election.

Condemning America’s “Systemic Racism”

In July 2020, Abrams told The Washington Post:

“[W]rit large, our challenge in America is that justice does not get meted out equally. In fact, it doesn’t even humanize many blacks who are killed, particularly by those who are sworn to protect them. And so I think this racial moment we are having begins with this conversation of extrajudicial killings, but it cannot be divorced from the disproportionate number of deaths by black Americans based on COVID-19, the disproportionate effect of infection rates, and the economic collapse that is hurting black and brown communities at higher rates than anyone else, and the lack of attention being paid to the disproportionate number of people of color who also face voter suppression. The systemic racism that we see in our society is wrapped into everything from our environment to criminal justice to the application of justice, and the moment we try to say that these things are separate, we set ourselves up once again for the kind of protest and demonstrations we see now. But the extent to which we acknowledge that these are interwoven, through systemic racism, systemic inequities, and systemic injustice, then we can begin to start to address them.”
