Georgia educator group endorses Abrams for governor

The Georgia Association of Educators, one of the state’s largest education groups, has endorsed Stacey Abrams in the governor’s race.

The association, which has about 30,000 members, scheduled a news conference Wednesday with Abrams at a school in East Atlanta to announce the endorsement.

The association said public education is at “a crossroads” in the state and “Georgia needs a true ‘public education’ governor to take the state where it belongs with regards to educating all of its children.”
