Stacey Abrams Whines About Poor Polling, Says Black Men “Targeted” For “Misinformation”
“Unfortunately, this year, black men have been a very targeted population for misinformation. Not misinformation about what they want but about why they want what they deserve.”
Stacey Abrams is not gifted with oratory skills.
For some reason, she is still peddling the lie that Georgia is suppressing the black vote. This despite her group losing their lawsuit alleging the same thing and a huge uptick in early voting.
Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams argued Saturday on MSNBC that higher voter turnout does not mean voter suppression is not taking place, saying that “people turned out early because they understand that [GOP Gov.] Brian Kemp and [Georgia secretary of state] Brad Raffensburger put barriers in place.”
“[Voters] know that there have been more difficulties put in place for absentee ballots, that white supremacist groups and hard-right-wing groups have been challenging people’s right to vote,” Abrams said. “We know that people turned out early because they understand that [Reupblicans] put barriers in place.”
“Let’s be clear, the false narrative that voter turnout has felled the idea of voter suppression misunderstands the effectiveness of suppression,” she said. “It has never been about stopping all voters. It is about clogging the arteries of the process and stopping certain voters. There is a precision to voter suppression.”
In sticking to this non-starter, Abrams either reveals her true feelings about black men or inadvertently calls them too stupid to know what is good for them (i.e. her). It’s surreal.

I honestly have no idea what this means, and I suspect that she doesn’t, either. Black men are targeted with ‘misinformation’ about . . . “why they want what they deserve”? Bizarre.
The question that keeps popping up:
Is she saying black men can’t think for themselves?
Is it any wonder why black men won’t vote for her? https://t.co/vvcmOEAkgZ

Here’s the full context of this comment (via RCP):
STACEY ABRAMS: Black men have increased their participation rates by 52% over 2018, and I do not believe that is because of a deep-welled enthusiasm for my opponent. We know black voters are often discounted. Unfortunately, this year black men have been a very targeted population for misinformation [Not misinformation about what they want but] about why they want what they deserve. My campaign has been the only one that has intentionally, thoughtfully, and consistently reached out. That has been misconstrued as concern, when really it is just respect. I know I’m not entitled to a single vote. I have to work for every vote I get. And I’ve worked very hard to engage black voters because I know they are the cornerstone to victory in the state of Georgia.
Presumably, as she is using this as her precuse for (most likely) losing on Tuesday, the ‘misinformation’ has confused black men so much that they aren’t voting/turning out for her as they should . . . despite the “voter suppression” keeping them away while increasing their participation by 52%? Nonsensical.

The fact that the Democrat party is STILL supporting and propping up this utterly insane and completely incompetent moron demonstrates just how far they are willing to sink in order to gain power.
She is prolifically stupid but way smarter than Fetterman and he will probably win.
What dressing goes best with that word salad?

cockseed.Okay, I so wanted “word salad” in the title of this piece! Thanks for “getting” me (as usual). <3
Stacy Abrams is a misandrist. She has a lot of company on the left.
Especially black men. They should get what they deserve—a chance to trim her toe nails.
She’s just a fat slob who can’t get a man. If she stopped stuffing her face, her life would change.
Oh, yeah: if she shut her mouth in general – coupled with a nongluttonous diet – she’d have a shot.
When she loses will she finally go away?
She didn’t last time
She’s a hillary clone, only larger
Not a chance. She’s the 21st century Harold Stassen.
No way. She’s lining up her new leadership role heading up the Distaff Meal Team 6.
OMG, Meal Team 6. I am dying over here! LOL
Meal Team 6 is on standby to refill Stacey’s cupboard with emergency vittles when her two day fast ends on Wednesday.
Meal Team 6, or Meal 6 Team?
She still has a lot of miles left on her pedometer.
And she isn’t getting any thinner since Star Trek gave her that replicator.
She should stay away from orange, particularly this close to Halloween.
The Great Pumpkin has spoken!!
If she went away, where would she go? I guess they could throw her in the ocean, but if they did the sea level would rise by ten feet.

When people perceive that you are serving shit sandwiches, one should expect a less than enthusiastic response to the call to lunch.
I think Stacey Abrams needs to get White House Press Secretary KJP to work for her and improve her communications. /s
Okay. This made me laugh. Out loud. For real. Hee!
Yes, that is FUNNY!
Maybe the voters Abrams refers to don’t appreciate folks telling them must vote for this or that particular candidate? They likely are tired of people trying to tell them they owe a particular candidate their vote. Lots of folks are tired of the messianic aspects that surrogates for some candidates display.
Telling potential voters they are some sort of traitor or fool if they refuse to simply obey these surrogates when those voters instead ask to be provided clear reasons and persuasive arguments is destined to fail. Not sure why some find this surprising. Flies, vinegar and honey is an old parable and still very true.
I think it is simpler than that. How many African Americans do you know who favor castrating children or oppose school vouchers?
Data is plural of anecdote.
IMO the point is the voters are being told to ignore X and that they must vote for candidate Z despite their reservations about X. Otherwise they are some sort of traitor or fool. Lots of that sort of rhetoric being thrown around these days.
It’s clearly not as effective as in the past. Though some are too addicted to the feeling of superiority they get by telling others what they must or should believe. Some have a direct financial interest in this grift. Some even have merch to move.
“It’s clearly not as effective as in the past.”
That’s because it’s clear as mud.
True
You can bet they are no more for that tranny/drag queen poop in schools than whites and Muslims.
When the Black Congressional Caucus is supporting white Democrat candidates over black Republicans, you know there is a disconnect.
They would carry her over the finish line if they could lift her, however 2 tons is a bit much.
It’s always about political power. There are lots of folks out there demanding voters must be loyal to candidate X. They are told they must not decide for themselves. That they must ignore things and do what others demand of them or be branded as traitors or fools. Not exactly following the old saw about the number of flies caught with honey as opposed to vinegar.
Many folks have always been resistant to others telling what to do with their own choices. Many more have recently started paying more attention and decided they don’t like it either. See Rona, Trans ideology, CRT, DEI.
Yet the same variations of the apocalyptic consequences for failing to heed the messianic call to ‘vote for X or else’ keep being used. Someday, perhaps soon, the folks using this tired strategy will discover it isn’t working as well as.it did in years past.
Idi Amin’s daughter, the vile Abrams, lives up to her father’s pathological narcissism, obnoxious entitlement, imperial arrogance and totalitarian ethos.
She has run hundreds of ads supporting gun control and the banning of AR15’s black men have listened and they believe her, black men do not want to give up their weapons.
Nor should they.
Tell me you think your constituents are too stupid to vote without telling me that you think your constituents are too stupid to vote.
Oh, the Great Pumpkin has no problem handing out her own misinformation.
Good. As a white man, I don’t want to give mine up either.
Colion Noir has done a Saint’s level of work on making sure Black men understand their rights in jeopardy.
She’s a corrupt, fat piece of sh*t. Naturally she says stupid things like this.
This bozo is part of the parade of idiots the Soros/Xi cabal is trying to stuff down our throats – like Biden, Fetterman, AOC and the like. Oh, yeah: add Oprah Winfrey to the cabal. Winfrey endorsing a Frankenstein like Fetterman (over her old friend and advisor, Oz) shows how corrupt she is.
Oh no she DIN’T…!!!
Oprah is part of the old “Reverend” Wright coalition. She hates the America that made her wealthy.
Rev Wright Coalition—kind of like the Holy Roman Empire— which was neither holy, nor Roman, nor an empire.
I have the suspicion election denial is going to be in vogue again very soon
It’s gonna be downright patriotic.
And storming the Capitol will be cited as the height of patriotic civic responsibility.
But that’s different because reasons. /S
She sounds like what the left calls an election denier.
I understand that Democrat politicians and their cheerleaders feel the need to explain away their defeat, but they should really think about what they’re saying and what impact it could have. They themselves have lectured Americans on the danger of election denial and how it can trigger political violence; so why are they doing it themselves?
You expect a Democrat to think about what they are saying or its impacts beyond their immediate political needs?
Surely you jest.
Wear red when you vote tomorrow.
But she’s making big big bucks. She’s a Sharpton type grifter.
Gotta move the merch, sell those books and collect speaking fee engagements.
Actually, Black men are shunning her because they all want to date her.
That isn’t a rare attitude among black women.
Epstein didn’t kill himself. Stacey Abrams ate him.
