Stacey Abrams, who became a breakout Democratic star after an ultimately unsuccessful run for Georgia governor in 2018, said in an interview published Wednesday that she’d be “honored” to be the vice presidential pick for “any nominee.”
During an interview with the New York Times, she also said that she opted not to jump into the race for the presidency because she’s been “pleased with the direction of the field.” She added that she does not anticipate making any endorsements.
When asked about her loss to Gov. Brian Kemp (R) in 2018, which she blames in part on Kemp’s “deliberate” voter suppression, she was was candid.
“What I regret every day is that we could not stop [Brian Kemp] from bastardizing this whole process, from denying the franchise to those who had earned it by being Americans and tried to use right to vote to set the course of their futures,” she said. “And I will always be deeply, deeply hurt that we live in a nation that permitted that to happen.”
My dream ticket for a while now has been Buttigieg/Abrams.
I think she would make a great VP and announcing the fact now might give her some influence over the POTUS primaries.
Those two will make an intelligent/passionate rebuttal and a mincemeat out of all the LIES from MYTHOMANIAC-In-Chief
= 12,019 LIES in 928 days!
Just for the record, so am I.
Just wanted to put that out there to make it official.
I am also available for any Victoria’s Secret models who would like to join me in a polygamous relationship with a member of a fabulously wealthy royal family. Just throwing my hat in the ring on that one, too.
EDIT: To be clear, I like Stacey Abrams a lot as a candidate. But these sorts of announcements at this stage are just silly.
Dear Every Democratic Candidate,
Please pick Stacey Abrams as your running mate.
Sincerely,
The Democratic Electorate
