Former Vice President Joe Biden’s campaign advisors are reportedly debating adding Stacey Abrams to the ticket…..as part of his official campaign announcement. A very speculative post from Axios’ Mike Allen says Biden’s position on Abrams couldn’t be discerned (that’s probably important to the process). But the report lays out several puzzle pieces that show why
I’m an Augustan by birth, and no matter where in the state, country, or world I may live, Augusta politics has always held a special place in my heart. That’s saying something, because at times, Augusta politicians can be horribly frustrating and demoralizing. We’re responsible for both Linda Schrenko and Charles Walker, for example. We’ll
Stacey Abrams’ campaign has not conceded. Kemp’s camp says it’s over. Cody Hall from Brian Kemp’s campaign said, “Kemp’s margin is so large that the number of provisional ballots and overseas ballots will not change his Election Day victory.” He goes on to say, “it is mathematically impossible for Stacey Abrams to win or force
Oh, the joys of tight elections! They bring out the best in some of us, but then there’s the mayhem caused by bad actors… Between August 2014 and May 2016, I voted in North Carolina. That was two years of sheer craziness because North Carolina is well known for being the purplest of purple states.

Libertarian Ted Metz had 2.3 percent
The latest poll from Landmark Communications finds Brian Kemp leading Stacey Abrams 48%-46.3%. What I find more interesting is that the same numbers hold true for the Lite Governor race as well. Were I a Republican I’d be very concerned heading into the election. That seems to lend some credence to Abrams’ internal poll released
Listening to WABE this morning they mentioned three Presidents and a Vice President have all weighed in on the 2018 gubernatorial election in Georgia. (Donald Trump and Mike Pence for Brian Kemp and Jimmy Carter and Barack Obama for Stacey Abrams who also was endorsed by Hillary Clinton). Which got me to thinking: has there
Progressives … Stacey Abrams does not owe you jack $#*!… I had a recent conversation with a friend and active politico. My friend said “If you talk to Stacey Abrams she needs to come to a church in this community. She can’t forget her base. She has to encourage people to come to the polls
Stacey Abrams made a trip to Manhattan on Monday to discuss her book: “Minority Leader.” Abrams said she hopes people stop fixating on her being the first black nominee for governor of Georgia calling that “Crayola politics.” “Fundamentally it doesn’t really matter what race you are; we want a good governor who can lead.” You
