1. I love her. Nothing more attractive than intelligence and dedication to purpose

Taking nothing away from her external beauty, mind you.

[George II]

3. She's got a captivating smile and gives off the aura of positivity. I don't think I've ever heard...

....anything from her that give the impression of negativity, even when talking about not winning.

What a talented, ambitious (that's not an insult) woman!

[BComplex]

6. Stacy Abrams really is a force to deal with, and I'm all into supporting anything

she tells us she needs help with.

She's already a great leader, and like others have said, beautiful in every way.

[Blue_playwright]

26. Yes, she is a Leader. Capital L.

[BComplex]

27. ...

Amen!

[Ferrets are Cool]

2. Thank you Ms Abrams

[still_one]

4. I have started donating, and will continue

[Phentex]

39. Thank you!

[Cha]

5. Rt.. TY Stacy Abrams

[AirmensMom]

7. Thank you!

I just donated $100. I hope it helps! I'll donate again next month, or sooner if I can.



No matter how this turns out, and obviously I'm hoping we win, Stacey Abrams deserves our undying gratitude for all she's done and continues to do.

[Phentex]

40. Thanks!

We have to try!

This Georgian thanks you!

8. She is ten years younger than me

but we were both on the high school debate team of the high school we both attended. I think that is my greatest brush with fame (that or being classmates with Lenny Dykstra in 9th grade - I would rather not mention that).


She and the party pulls this one off - it will be one for the ages. She already has made an impressive contribution.

I have already sent my contributions to each Senate candidate.

[ananda]

9. Fantastic!

Proud to say I'm one of that number.

10. She should be our next DNC Chair to fight vote suppression...

repug gerrymandering and to fund raise in a 50 state strategy to get us through 2022 and hold the House. Also in 2022 there are a boatload of repug Senators up for re-election, way more than Dems. We have a good chance to win some additional Senate seats then.

After that, IMO a higher office is in her future.

[Lonestarblue]

11. Yes, yes, yes. She would be a great DNC chair.

How can we help make this happen after January? And I wonder whether she would want it. But what a way to recognize all that she and black women have done for the Democratic Party and the whole get out the vote effort.

[mountain grammy]

20. Agree!

[gab13by13]

12. I post this with a grain of salt,

because I just remember reading it "somewhere." I read that up to 200,000 voters were purged from the voting rolls in Georgia, if true, I hope someone is working to get them reinstated. Anyone else set me straight?

[brush]

21. Her opponent in the 2018 governor race did do that as he...

was Secretary of State. It was a blatant conflict of interest and most of those purged voters where African Americans who would've most likely voted for her. In other words, the repugs stole the election.

Since then she has worked to stop the vote suppression and she's been successful as Georgia has turned blue.

[CottonBear]

25. KKKemp & his successor have kept purging!

It’s a constant battle to vote in Georgia.

[Auggie]

13. I just donated $55 (I really don't have) to fuck Mitch McConnell. Join me.

[Phentex]

42. Thank you!

[dalton99a]

14. Kick

[NoMoreRepugs]

15. Just sent a $1000. Not rich by any means - just want my granddaughter to grow up in America - not

tRumplandia.

[George II]

17. Good for you! We can do this and take the Senate (with VP Harris' help!)

[Phentex]

43. Thanks!

[In It to Win It]

16. ..and she needs our help!

[obamanut2012]

18. If she pulls this off, they need to beg her to head the DNC

Seriously. She has already helped work a miracle in GA.

[Roc2020]

19. She can. I think Warnock has a better shot

than Ossoff. Folks down here in GA especially in the suburbs are looking at Ossoff with a side eye

[brush]

22. Why do you say that about Ossoff? You must not have seen...

this video from the debate with Perdue.

23. Awesome Stacey!!

She really is a go getter!! She kicks butt!

[brer cat]

24. I'm all in!

GA is blue and I want to keep it that way.

[iluvtennis]

28. Thank you Stacey for all of your hard work to help save our democracy!! nt

[BobTheSubgenius]

29. I really hope she gets the recognition and love she deserves.

The respect she gets around DU really should be echoed in the wider arena of national politics.

[Omaha Steve]

30. We now have a DU link to donate to Ossoff, Warnock, and Stacey's Fair Fight!

Contribute here: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/dufor2020runoff

[George II]

33. Thanks! That makes sure contributions are going directly to the runoff campaigns. Excellent!

[Hermit-The-Prog]

34. Strangely enough, you did not complain about actblue here as you did multiple other places.

[George II]

35. I didn't "COMPLAIN" about ActBlue, I pointed out that 100% of direct contributions

....go to the candidate's committee directly without a transaction fee.

What I may have "complained" about was the way some solicit contributions not just for the candidates themselves but break up contributions between candidates and several peripheral groups.

Interesting that you're commenting on it here but not in that thread itself.

[tonedevil]

36. This is the good ActBlue...

it's that other ActBlue that is the bad one. It can be difficult to tell them apart. Perhaps further investigation will reveal a distinction between them.

[George II]

37. Perhaps reading the post about which he's commenting might shorten such an investigation.

[tonedevil]

38. Thanks for the elucidation. /nt

[George II]

45. You're quite welcome.

[LanternWaste]

44. Context and nuance can be difficult.

Good luck!!!

31. K&R

32. KICK!

41. She is an inspiration!
