Opinion: Let’s help Stacey Abrams make the right choice
Former Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams addresses the National Action Network's annual national convention in New York on April 3.
As for another run at the governorship, Abrams has plenty of time before 2022 to decide to run. Having come within a hair’s breadth of winning in 2018 despite voter-suppression techniques deployed by her opponent , she certainly would be a strong candidate. Could she win? Sure. Neither Biden nor Bernie can afford to lose in Iowa and New Hampshire. If they do, the aura of front-runner is gone, and they become old guys in a scrum against an array of candidates — a loquacious former congressman, a Midwest mayor and a bunch of senators. Could she beat all of those? Surely, her chances would be at least 50-50, right?
What does she run on? She can keep it simple and effective by talking about what she already knows as well as, if not better than, most contenders: breaking the system of voting suppression; addressing health care; and attending to the needs of rural Americans, who are falling further and further behind urban centers on every measure from life expectancy to income. She will come across as a fresher voice .
