Who is Stacey Abrams, the Woman Who Helped Joe Biden Turn 'Ruby Red' Georgia Blue?

News 18  

Stacey Abrams has had many jobs so far. In 2019, Abrams, along with her former campaign manager, Lauren Groh-Wargo, wrote a 16-page long document that served as a blueprint for Biden and gave insights on strategies that would work for the state of Georgia, where the electorate was leaning towards the democrats but wasn’t quite there yet. However, I take a broad view of 2020, knowing that Georgia is part of a national charge.” The cut-throat race that played out in Georgia between Biden and Trump and the razor-thin margin with which Biden claimed his victory is a testimony of how prophetic Abrams’ proclamations were and the reason she could offer such detailed insights about the electorate of Georgia is her years of fight against voters’ suppression in the state. However, after the eye-opening governor’s race, she furthered the work of The Georgia Project, a voters’ drive founded by her in 2013 to encourage voters’ registration with another drive called Fair Fight, which ensured that elections are carried out fairly, encouraging voters’ participation by educating them about their rights, and advocating electoral reforms. And all 800,000 came on the rolls after November ’18, which means these are voters who weren’t eligible to vote for me but are eligible to participate in this upcoming election.” A report also states that in 2013 “when The New Georgia Project was launched, there were 1.2 million people of color and unmarried women who were eligible to vote but not registered.
