Stacey Abrams loses bid to use same Georgia fundraising law that benefits Gov. Brian Kemp

A federal judge ruled Thursday that a fundraising committee associated with Democratic gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams’ campaign cannot begin raising unlimited campaign contributions.

So, if you actually read the article, the judge told Abrams she could not start unlimited fundraising because she is not yet her parties nominee, whereas Kemp is continuing his position as governor for another term.

In short, this has nothing to do with race, nothing to do with the party, it has to do with the law indicating that the incumbent can raise funds immediately, while others, including members of the incumbents party, have to wait. This is a matter for the Georgia legislation to change the law, if people don’t agree. However, I would point out a couple of things, would you feel the same way if it was a Democrat incumbent? Also, does the fundraising “head start” actually make a difference? Hard to say, there have been candidates all over the country who have dumped significantly more money into campaigns and still lost, likewise, people who did not have much in campaign funds have won routinely.

In the end, I personally disagree , whatever the party of the incumbent, that they should have any kind of advantage. But again, that requires changing the law, which is done by the legislation. The judge and the ruling aren’t the problem.


Lillian Dozier I'm not sure why you think I sound like Trump. We can say his name. He's not Voldemort, even if he seems worse. The name Trump is enough of an insult at this time, no reason to derive it into something made up... as for me bing a "liar" or "like Trump"; I have to disagree on both accounts. Maybe you misunderstood what I was saying in my original comment, if you are likening me to Trump. My original comment was that the system is rigged to benefit republicans, who would routinely and regularly lose national elections, as well as many local and state elections, if it weren't for the "systems" that give them a fighting chance: namely voting map gerrymandering and the national gerrymandering system quoined "the electoral college". Now if you want to back peddle, fine. If you are still thinking I'm a liar or a 'frump', you should know what I'd say you can do with yourself


Al Hooper I find it amusing that old white people, typically not well educated or financially “well off”, insist on labeling Democrats as “elitist” and yet give their full-throated support to so-called conservative Republicans, many of whom have Ivy League or similar educations; are lawyers, doctors, or other “wealthy” professions; send their kids to private schools; live in huge homes - you know - generally what would be classified as “elite” by many “working peoples” definition, yet the Democrats are vilified for trying to advance an agenda where more people from the bottom rungs of the ladder get a chance to move up. I don’t understand the logic.


She’s trying hard to steal the election
Vote Republican

Buyden is good for nothing, while weirdos come into US illegally. Just happened on a subway in NYC. CRIMINALS don’t respect weak people that can hardly walk.
This shooter was a illegal that terrified NYC. EVERY STATE is a boarder state

NPR praises Buyden the puppet when all he’s done is sponge off the people. Most people are really smart but. A lot of idiots voted for this parasite

Buyden colluded with Russia and China.

As seen by the imposters of the Secret Service Agents in DC

Buyden caused the chaos here in America and across the world because of his weakness were all less secure.
This guy can hardly form a sentence or even walk .

Hé doesn’t know what he’s doing. He is starting a world war and is going to get everyone killed. Not just defenseless unborn babies at planned parenthood. That’s right I forget he’s Irish Catholic

High inflation
No security on the southern border
allowing drugs and human trafficking to flow into the country.
Killing of defenseless unborn children of God
Allowing BLM and ANTIFA to loot, burn and dictate a state of chaos
Nominating Austin that is teaching CRT To the soldiers. We need a leader like General George Patton
teaching to kill the enemy

We need a President that stands up for Americans

Buyden and the democrats caused inflation, high fuel prices, high energy prices, high food prices and also an increase of insecurity not securing the southern border and un American foreign policies.

How could anyone vote democrat?

Georgia Gubernatorial candidate Dr. Kandiss Taylor advises supporters to ignore pollsters
Baxley, GA— April 14, 2022 — After local media excluded grassroots Conservative Gubernatorial candidate, Dr. Kandiss Taylor, from the upcoming April 28 intra-party debate citing “low polling numbers,” Dr. Taylor advised supporters to ignore calls from polling organizations.
“I know for a fact that I am polling at 30 percent based on what people conducting polls have told me,” said Dr. Taylor. “We have also done our own inner polling, so I know the media are lying. They’re not saying my name when they call. They’re naming Kemp and Perdue, but refusing to say my name. So, then the low polling numbers I am getting are coming from organic voters that are saying, ‘No, I’ll vote for Kandiss Taylor.’”
The solution, Dr. Taylor said, is to just stop participating in a rigged system. “We have to stop playing into their propaganda game,” Dr. Taylor stated. “The fake pollsters play into the standard media narrative that only establishment or celebrity politicians are worthy of being elected. These polls don’t reflect will of the people or the truth because of how they’re conducted. Worse, the dishonesty also deprives the people of the opportunity to make their voice heard – and we’ve had more than enough of that in Georgia.”
She added, “We will show up for the real polls on Election Day, May 24, and until then, the fake pollsters and fake news will just have to wonder how many grassroots voters the Taylor Campaign is amassing. We refuse to participate in their narrative or in the potential algorithmic programming of the voting machines.”
Dr. Taylor is a south-Georgia native and an educator with nearly two decades of experience in the Appling County schools working with students and their families in a number of different roles – most recently as student services coordinator for the Appling County Board of Education. She is committed to ensuring conservative values are protected from government overreach and that every Georgian has a voice in their government.
