After Stacey Abrams lost the Georgia gubernatorial race in 2018 to Brian Kemp, the Democrat candidate conceded gracefully and moved on. Just kidding! You and I know what happened next. A group affiliated with Abrams filed a federal lawsuit, arguing that the election was tainted even though that’s something the Left wants us to believe only Trump does:
In the coming days, we will be filing a major federal lawsuit against the state of Georgia for the gross mismanagement of this election and to protect future elections from unconstitutional actions. #gapol

We will channel the work of the past several weeks into a strong legal demand for reform of our election system in Georgia. And I will not waver in my commitment to work across party lines and across divisions to find a common purpose in protecting our democracy.

Because these votes are our voices. We are each entitled to our choices. As Georgians, we have always been at the forefront of speaking truth to whatever power may lay claim to leadership – if only for the moment. We will win because we are Georgia. And we WILL get it done.

Fast forward almost four years and we have yet another judgment that Abrams can dispute. The hits just keep on coming:
Stacey Abrams loses her long-running lawsuit based on her refusal to accept her 2018 election loss. All prominent Dems had joined her effort and false claims she was the victor. Media largely supported her efforts as well. https://t.co/wwtjlqO35e

No matter how often Abrams declares herself a rightful winner, the losses just keep piling up.
I thought it was a threat to Democracy to question the results of an election? 😂😂 https://t.co/ysXncQvygR

Not when Democrats do it, obviously!
From the Associated Press:
A federal judge on Friday found that Georgia election practices challenged by a group associated with Democrat Stacey Abrams do not violate the constitutional rights of voters, ruling in favor of the state on all remaining issues in a lawsuit filed nearly four years ago.
“Although Georgia’s election system is not perfect, the challenged practices violate neither the constitution nor the VRA,” U.S. District Judge Steve Jones in Atlanta wrote, referring to the Voting Rights Act of 1965. He detailed his reasoning in a 288-page order.
The lawsuit was filed in November 2018, just weeks after Abrams narrowly lost the governor’s race to Republican Brian Kemp. Throughout that contest, Abrams had accused Kemp, then secretary of state, of using his position as the state’s top elections official to promote voter suppression. Kemp vehemently denied the allegations.
Kemp on Friday applauded the ruling, calling it a loss for Abrams.
Well, another loss for Abrams anyway. And hopefully in about five weeks there will be yet another loss for Abrams.
Old Abrams slogan: We won
New Abrams slogan: We prevailed—the judge just didn’t realize it. pic.twitter.com/kTvnLn23dV— Tom Kattman (@TomKattman) October 1, 2022
Gee it sure has been a long last few years for Abrams.
Is she going to claim she won the lawsuit as well?

Hey, why not!?
And it wasn’t an arrow loss as AP claims. She lost a *state* election by 50 thousand votes!!

The AP can always be counted on to help out with the Dem narrative, even when it’s total BS (as it usually is).
