1. Such an impressive woman. I wonder how best to

involve her nationally (if she were open to leaving Georgia and her successes there). A bright organized positive energetic light. No question about that. Born leader.

2. She is someone

who understands it so very much! I hope her future is bright in our party - may she go far.

3. "We don't elect saviors"

Or words to that effect were my favorite quote. She went on to say that we hire politicians. I love that attitude. She is a hero in my mind and hopefully she will be in a government leadership position soon, either in a Biden administration or elected in Georgia.

4. Loved her "we got this" comment during the ballot counting.

So reassuring, and the personification of strength. Kudos to Stacey Abrams!
