On Monday, appearing on CNN’s “New Day,” Stacey Abrams, a former Democratic gubernatorial nominee in Georgia who claimed she had lost the race to then-Secretary of State Brian Kemp in the gubernatorial race in 2018 because of voter suppression, stated, “Republicans do not know how to win without voter suppression as one of their tools.”
CNN anchor Jim Sciutto prompted Abrams’ remark by saying, “I want to ask you a big picture question here because, you know, the president still denies the outcome of this election and Republicans around the country drawing on that to already begin writing up voting restrictions, right, to bring back some of the voter expansion measures we saw in this cycle, including mail-in ballots, et cetera. Do you see that effort ticking up again after this cycle in state legislatures around the country where, frankly, Republicans have an enormous advantage? And, if so, what are you going to do about it?”
