Stacey Abrams PAC tops $100 million raised

Grift getting it done. Hope she runs and wins, Georgia deserves her.
Abrams started the group Fair Fight after narrowly losing a 2018 bid for governor. She blamed her loss in part on Republican efforts to block Democratic voters from getting to the polls.
Now, Fair Fight has raised more than $103 million, according to filings with Georgia’s Government Transparency and Campaign Finance Commission.

Abrams’s group raised almost $90 million in the run-up to November’s general election, and another $8 million in advance of and just after two runoff elections in Georgia that handed Democrats control of the U.S. Senate. Fair Fight will report raising another $6 million since February.
Abrams’s group has hauled in cash from some of the biggest Democratic funders, including $5 million from former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, as he sought the Democratic presidential nomination; more than $2 million from Silicon Valley philanthropist Karla Jurvetson; and $250,000 from LinkedIn founder Reid Hoffman.
The group also reported raising $12 million in direct contributions for both Sens. Raphael Warnock (D-Ga.) and Jon Ossoff (D-Ga.) as they waged the campaigns that ultimately decided control of the Senate.
ADVERTISEMENT
Fair Fight had about $24.7 million in the bank at the end of June, according to its most recent filings in Georgia. That money can be used, in part, to back Abrams if and when she mounts a widely expected bid to challenge Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp (R) once again. LINK

No, Georgia doesn't deserve her.
Trump won Georgia. By a LOT.
Not their fault that the fatass gap tooth posse stole it.

And to think she was nearly insolvent before she ran for governor.

"Fair Fight"
This is a tactic of the left. Name things the exact opposite of what they really are.

It will be their fault if they don't stand up and demand a full forensic audit without interference

Georgia isn't blue, rocket surgeon.

Deeper blue. So, like from a Cobalt to an Indigo? Or maybe a Denim?

Trump raised $300m AFTER the election
Flooded his patriots with texts to get more this week
I'm sure he won't spend it in self serving manner

That's gonna pay for a whole lot Krispy Kreme to stuff down that gullet...

Why is an election denier welcome in the progressive camp?

How many houses will she end of having.

That right there encapsulates everything that is wrong in American politics. Being rewarded for being a loser.
