Politically Georgia: Stacey Abrams joins the race for governor
Democrat Stacey Abrams has faced criticism that her refusal to concede the 2018 election for governor is similar to the false claims former Republican President Donald Trump has spread to try to undermine the results of the 2020 presidential election. But Georgia State University political scientist Amy Steigerwalt sees few similarities. “The biggest difference, obviously, is that Donald Trump continues to say that in fact he is the rightful winner of the election,” she said. “Stacey Abrams didn’t continue to suggest that she was going to be rightfully installed as governor or that all of the election results were going to be overturned.” Miguel Martinez for The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Abrams and Trump both questioned elections, but evidence is different
