Abrams: ‘Undocumented’ Immigrants Are Part of the ‘Blue Wave’

Georgia Democratic gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams said Tuesday that the “blue wave” is comprised of “undocumented” immigrants, among many others.
Abrams made these comments in front of supporters at the Clayton County campaign office during an event with Senator Elizabeth Warren, as first reported by The Washington Free Beacon.

“The thing of it is, the blue wave is African American. It’s white, it’s Latino, it’s Asian-Pacific Islander,” said Abrams, “it is disabled, it is differently-abled, it is LGBTQ, it is law enforcement, it is veterans. It is made up of those who’ve been told that they are not worthy of being here. It is comprised of those who are documented and undocumented”

Ga law requires names on voter rolls to match the voter's name on their drivers licenses and birth certificates. Seems pretty reasonable to me, but since many black people have names that are more difficult to spell, this is obviously racist.

She is showing her ignorance on the issue every time she speaks. Kemp as SOS did not write the law she is referencing, it came from the legislature which she was a part of. His position is to uphold laws under the purview of the SOS office, not write them. Of course her supporters are not likely to put much emphasis on facts.

BTW, I may be on the pending list due to an error on my voter registration. I've been trying to get it corrected, they left the Jr. off on my voter registration info but it is on my DL. No complicated name, no minority suppression, just a clerical error.

The problem with Georgia is demographic. In 1990 70% of Georgians were Caucasian. In 2012 it was 55%. If you believe minorities vote overwhelming for a minority candidate and some non-minorities do as well, if the turnout is equal the results are what they are.

Right On @GunWritr !!!

THIS x 100,000,000

We can not just say "Well, I will vote for that person who will respect & help my Rights" and say "I did my part"...

We really need to shake the trees and get anyone stuck on the fence to our side and to VOTE come election day.  That is what the "other side" is trying to do, get sister, brother, granny, mother and anyone else to the polls to elect Democrats in this "Blue Wave" election cycle.

Close elections just encourage the enemy to keep coming back on "We were so close, we'll get them next election".

A great whipping & ass kicking will make them realize they are wrong for the nation and our American Culture...

We can not take any seat for granted as "won" no matter if the polls show us leading.  We can not take any seat for granted as "lost" no matter if the polls show us behind.

Elections are not about Money, they are ALL about turning out the VOTERS to VOTE, so while it helps to talk (to the undecided), do whatever it takes get EVERYONE you can to VOTE to make the difference in Preserving our Great Nation!

This.

The rural counties are losing population and the metro area is gaining.

From 2016:
Population growth in Georgia has resumed after slumping during the recession, but the pattern of that growth has markedly changed.

Metro Atlanta has for years been a magnet for people migrating into the state; from 1990 to 2010, Atlanta’s population grew from about 2.6 million to 4.1 million people, according to the Atlanta Regional Commission.

But now much more of that growth is concentrated in Atlanta than in the past. About two-thirds of Georgia’s growth is now happening in just six of the state’s 159 counties, said Matt Hauer, a demographer with the University of Georgia’s Carl Vinson Institute of Government.

Those include five metro Atlanta counties and Chatham County.

And half the state’s population growth is concentrated in just three Atlanta metro counties - Fulton, Gwinnett and Forsyth, Hauer found when he analyzed U.S. Census data.

Do NOT believe the polls.  They are designed to lower conservative turnout.  The media are in the tank for the left and this is just one of the ways that they try to win.

Be sure and talk this up with your friends and tell them that they need to be sure and vote or else:  taxes and crime will go up, essential services will degrade, the quality of education will decline and illegal immigration will increase.

Tell them that the majority of money going into the Abrams campaign is from out of state and that the people of San Francisco think she's wonderful.  If you want a San Francisco east, she's your gal.

Also tell them that if a pollster contacts them to be sure and tell them how wonderful Abrams is and how you can't wait to vote for her and all the little other commies on the ballot too

She’s black, which is enough to carry a lot of South Georgia counties.
All she has to do is carry the Atlanta area counties .    There is at this time  2 Georgia voting elements .   Atlanta which is number 1 .   Then there is the rest of the state .  All that she needs is to carry  Atlanta .   I figure she'll get Macon , Savannah ,  Augusta , Valdosta area , and Columbus .   That will be difficult to over come .

I'm already looking to leave the state and I'm not joking .   Nothing to hold me here and I'll be damned if I'll live in a state with her as governor .   She's to unpredictable .

This is the story for every state wide election.  "Georgia is going blue"  It's pushed by the cheerleaders in the MSM and the liberal news based in Atlanta.

I'm confident Kemp wins, but they will eventually get a Dem in when the Republicans run such a weak candidate that the conservatives stay home and the Atlanta vote overwhelms the rest of the state.

Truth is the Gov in Ga has very little power, mostly to veto.  We don't need any new laws anyway.
