Stacey Abrams (staceyabrams) outlines her vision for Democrats dominating Washington and when she plans on running for president
Georgia’s Stacey Abrams, a rising star in the Democratic Party, quashed rumors that she is considering a 2020 presidential bid on Monday as she outlined her future plans for office at SXSW.
She then addressed the rumors surrounding her potential run for the presidency, telling the crowd that 2028 would be the earliest year she would consider launching a campaign for the White House. There are many jobs she would like to have before then, such as senator or vice president. Abrams was defeated by Kemp by fewer than 60,000 votes, and initially refused to concede amid allegations of widespread voter suppression. When she did formally exit the race, more than a week after Election Day, she slammed Kemp and the state for “gross mismanagement” of the election and filed a federal lawsuit against the state of Georgia.
