Failed Democratic gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams is, at this point, a political gimmick — a niche curiosity whose purpose is to convince herself and others that she is the true governor of Georgia in exile.

She travels the country insisting she actually won the 2018 race, which she lost to Georgia’s then-Secretary of State Brian Kemp by 48.8% to his 50.2%, by a margin of about 55,000 votes. Abrams claims, without evidence, that Kemp used voter suppression tactics to steal the election. In making such claims, she relies on a great deal of poor and biased national news reporting that hit in the weeks leading up to the election.
