Stacey Abrams blasts Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp: 'I think we have a failed leader who is currently occu

occupying the office'

Stacey Abrams, fresh off the announcement that she would run to become Georgia's next governor in 2022, on Thursday blasted her onetime opponent, Republican Gov. Brian Kemp, as a "failed leader."

During an appearance on MSNBC's "The Rachel Maddow Show," Abrams, the former minority leader in the Georgia House of Representatives and longtime voting-rights activist who narrowly lost the 2018 gubernatorial race, said that she's running to lead the state once again because she wants to see its government work for everyone.

"I believe we have the capacity to be an extraordinary place for families to grow — for people to succeed and thrive — and I think we have a failed leader who is currently occupying the office," she said.

She continued: "My mission is service. To serve people you have to care about them. You have to care about all of them. I've shown that in the three years since the last election, I've spent my time doing what I can do serve Georgia."

The Governorship and the Senate race. Last polls I’ve seen had both Abrams and Warnock a few points behind in the potential matchups next year. Much of it is going to hinge on the state of the economy, inflation, gas and grocery prices, etc.
