Disturbance by Stacey in Georgia

7 Min Read

After 1996, thanks to the Abrams programs, the Democrats once again won this state in the presidential elections, and both Democratic candidates won the Senate race. It was these campaigns and Abrams programs that had a significant impact on the Senate race and ultimately brought a disruptive majority in the US Congress for their party.

Abrams is lagging behind.

The competition for the Georgia governorship has started again, and this competition is a repeat of the 2018 showdown between Stacey Abrams and Brian Kemp. Now, Kemp’s campaign, relying on a favorable public perception, has created a significant gap with Abrams in the polls. Kemp’s 8 to 10 percent lead in all the polls is noteworthy and hard to digest for those who believe in Abrams’ abilities.

Brian Kemp resisted Trump’s efforts to overturn and change the outcome of the presidential election in his state in 2020, which sparked Trump’s anger. As a result, in the preliminary party elections to determine the final Republican candidate, Kemp faced off against Trump-backed rival and received support from many independent and even Democratic Georgians to defeat the Trump-backed candidate, which easily happened.

Brian Kemp relies on the relatively favorable economic and social situation of his state and with these achievements, he has gained the upper hand in Georgia, where the conservative spirit is still predominantly and inherently dominant.

Stacey Abrams is striving to become the governor in a situation where the economic situation of America and high inflation have dealt a severe blow to the Democrats’ position in most areas. Surveys among Georgia citizens indicate that they are more confident and optimistic about the future of their state than the future of the United States.

It is natural for conservatives to blame the Democrats, who control the White House and both houses of Congress in Washington, for the problems and challenges faced by many states and regions that are in critical and sensitive electoral conditions. Every cultural and social shift also has an impact, which is why the provocations and slogans of progressives and extremists in the Democratic Party have created and continue to create strong opposition among independent and non-partisan voters.

In these circumstances, the strategy of Abrams and her campaign is to maximize the potential supporters and drive them to the polls. Her campaign aims to register as many new and first-time voters as possible and encourage them to vote for stability. By relying on young and enthusiastic volunteers, they intend to break election records and knock on 2 million doors until election day, no matter what.

It is natural for them to resort to this idea out of a lack of confidence in persuading those who intend to vote in advance and are independent. With the current situation and relative satisfaction with the current administration, it is unlikely that they will significantly increase the number of votes in favor of stability.

Stacey Abrams is a prominent figure and active political and social activist. She has proven her abilities to everyone and naturally has made both minor and major mistakes, such as making strong statements in some cases and examples like not wearing a mask during the COVID-19 pandemic while visiting a school. The main problem for her is not gaining the support of the Democrats in this particular campaign in Georgia.

She was one of the two or three main figures in the 2020 elections and even had the chance to be Biden’s deputy. Now she has to work hard to keep her luck for the governorship. This is happening while one of the civil society organizations established by Stacey Abrams is trying legally to overturn some of Georgia’s anti-democratic laws that harm the participation of many non-white people, but they have been unsuccessful according to the court’s ruling.
