Abrams Still Refuses to Accept Defeat in Georgia Governor’s Race: ‘I Did Win My Elec
Quote:Vanquished Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams (D.) boasted about never conceding her race against Gov. Brian Kemp (R.) Thursday and claimed "I did win my election."
Abrams never officially conceded defeat in her bitterly fought race with Kemp, claiming the former secretary of state in Georgia engaged in systematic voter suppression—although the number of voters participating in the governor's race nearly doubled from 2014 to 2018—and claimed it was not a "free or fair election."
At an event Thursday, Abrams was asked by a tracker if she would ever concede to Kemp. She appeared to remain silent, but she said inside that she'd told the tracker "no."
"I did win my election," she said, according to ABC News reporter Adam Kelsey. "I just didn't get to have the job."
Other prominent Democrats have also claimed the race was stolen from Abrams, although she lost by nearly 55,000 votes and couldn't get the race to a runoff. Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) said the evidence suggested the race was stolen by Kemp, and Hillary Clinton and Sen. Sherrod Brown (D., Ohio) made similar claims.
However, it was Clinton who claimed during her 2016 campaign against Donald Trump that he would potentially not accept defeat.
"One of our hallmarks has always been that we accept the outcomes of our elections," she said.

Doesn't serve her well. She may get her base fired up, but independent minded voters will vote for somebody else.
Being a poor loser is just a bad look.

Reality is that Kemp did a good job of Sec. of State and didn't let Abrams steal the election by all the fraudulent voter registrations her voter registration project did 2 years earlier.
She thought she could come up with enough fake votes to win.

Seems the ONLY candidates that won't accept election results are dumbocrats… Al Gore, Hillary Clinton, Stacey Abrams, conclusion, dumbocrats are batshit crazy.

That's because elections are all that matters to them.

She and Hillary should run together. Neither one of them have ever lost an election.

Can't see much why anyone is wasting time even talking about this lady, especially nationally. It's quite the farce.

Abrams Still Refuses to Accept Defeat in Georgia Governor’s Race: ‘I Did Win My Elec
Not surprising given the absolute hysterical reactions to Hillary losing. When they lose an election now, the Dems claim victory. What a screwed up group of people. Deranged and out of touch with reality.
Quote:Former Democratic gubernatorial candidates Stacey Abrams and Andrew Gillum this week questioned the outcomes of their 2018 gubernatorial races -- suggesting that they, rather than their Republican opponents, should be in the governor seats.
Gillum, the former mayor of Tallahassee who lost to now-Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis in the state’s gubernatorial race in November, hinted on HBO’s “Real Time with Bill Maher” that both he and Abrams got enough votes to win their races, and that Abrams' may have been influenced by her opponent already being in office.

Yep. We've all seen the infantile temper tantrum that they have thrown since Nov 2016

Well they did get enough votes. Just that alert state officials kept them from manufacturing as many fake votes as they hoped. So they lost.

It takes a moron to believe there was nothing crooked going on in Broward, that it was only incompetence.
