Stacey Abrams is running for governor again, but it’s not going well. One could argue that it’s the Andrea Doria of political campaigns right now. She’s heading for another defeat against incumbent Republican Brian Kemp, who beat her outright in 2018, though Abrams has yet to concede that race. Abrams became an overnight celebrity within the Democratic Party and played a crucial role in securing the state for Joe Biden in 2020. You’d think that with the political infrastructure she had a hand in manufacturing, her 2022 run would be smoother sailing. That turned out to be a gross miscalculation.

This key voting bloc kept the 2018 race close. Read more and see tweets here.
