Stacey Abrams falsely claims the RNC will 'cheat and lie' to win elections

Republicans are going to terrify minority communities, ruin the integrity of elections, and monitor votes in order to secure a win. At least, that’s what failed Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams thinks.

In a Tuesday MSNBC interview, Abrams claimed that the “For the first time since 1981, the RNC will be allowed to cheat and lie and go into polling places and scare voters, particularly voters of color.” She’s right that a 1982 consent decree limiting the Republican National Committee’s ballot security efforts has been lifted. As for the consequences, she’s far off base, as usual.
