About three years ago, House Minority Leader Stacey Abrams founded a company with her younger sister and named it Myrina Strategies.

Making it harder to track is that Abrams failed to claim the corporation on her personal financial disclosure, a required form for every office holder that is supposed to allow the public to peer into candidate's business arrangements and look for potential conflicts.

Abrams said Myrina Strategies was a convenient legal construct through which to receive payment for services rendered. There was no attempt to hide anything, she said.
