The true election denier is not Donald Trump, it's Stacey Abrams.
The Georgia gubernatorial Democrat candidate claimed to CNN that she โnever deniedโ the outcome of the 2018 race she lost to current Governor Brian Kemp (R).
Appearing on CNN's โErin Burnett OutFrontโ Monday, Abrams spoke about a federal judge rejecting the lawsuit brought by her organization Fair Fight Action which challenged Georgia's election practices. Burnett asked the gubernatorial hopeful if this loss would lead to her acknowledging Kemp's victory after she refused to concede four years ago.
โI acknowledged that I was not the governor,โย Abramsย replied, pointing to the beginning of her post-election speech. โWhat I said is that the process denied access to too many voters.โ
Abrams added that she has โnever denied the outcome,โ but that she has โalways questioned the process and the access.โ
โOutcome is about who wins,โ she continued, โand no one is entitled to victory, not even myself. I've never been unclear about the fact that I did not win the race.โ
Abrams must have conveniently forgotten the truth to her claims. The Georgia politician not only denied the election repeatedly but also went as far as to claim the election was โstolenโ from her.
According to Post Millenial, Abrams has reiterated false claims that she actually won the 2018 race for years but now that she's on the ballot once again she's attempting to squash the narrative that she is an election denier.
โThis is not a speech of concession because concession means to acknowledge an action is right, true or proper,โ she said at the time.
In the months that followed, Abrams remained steadfast that the election was โnot free and fair,โ on numerous occasions suggesting that she had actually won.โI did win my election, I just didn't get to have the job,โ she told Color of Change's Rashad Robinson.
Speaking in London in 2019, Abrams stated that Kemp โgot to be the contestant, the referee and the scorekeeper โ and shockingly, he won, or at least that's what he tells us.โย
โI know in my heart of hearts, we won,โ she added, a statement she echoed at the National Action Network convention later that year. During that same convention, she even went so far as to suggest that the election had been โstolen.โ
Prominent Democrats, including Abrams, have attacked former President Donald Trump for his own claims the 2020 presidential election was rigged to help Democrats but so far Abrams has largely gone unscathed for her dangerous rhetoric.
Abrams is facing off against Brian Kemp in November's gubernatorial race.
Many prognosticators, such as RealClearPolitics, have predicted a highly competitive race as Abrams desperately attempts to clench the office which has long alluded her but Gov. Kemp remains in the lead.
The most recent FOX News poll reported Governor Kemp with a seven-point lead over the Democrat challenger.

Democrats lie. She is a democrat. Just ignore her.
American, you got it wrong. That fat old b–ch is either a Socialist or a Fascist. She most definitely is not a Democrat.
She looks like she swallowed Hillary! My idea of fun hour would be to see her and stumbling Joe going up the steps of A.F.One!I would pay for a ticket to watch that sheist show!
If it was her and Kemp in 2020, she would have been able to steel the election. Then Georgia would never see a republican win a major election ever again.
“. . . . no one is entitled to victory. . . .” Hear that, Hillary??
If “that” is a Darling of the Democrats the word “desperation”comes to mind. Did she forget all her lies last election, when she would not concede? Has she ever conceded? Why is it that 99% of Democratic women are like what you scrape off your shoe at the dog park! Starting with the Squad, the Governors, the View, and most of Hollyweed… the ultimate is Hillary. They must advertise in some off the beaten path magazine for candidates!
Venite ignoramus..’Oh come let us ignore (her)’… Stacey could look pretty good and capture more voters’ hearts if she would only manage to lose, say, about 100 pounds.
