Fox News
Democrat Stacey Abrams on Wednesday launched a 2022 bid for governor in Georgia, setting up a potential rematch with GOP Gov. Brian Kemp.
Abrams, the former Georgia House Democratic leader who in 2018 made history as the first Black woman gubernatorial nominee of a major political party, narrowly lost to Kemp by less than 55,000 votes out of nearly 4 million cast in the Peach State’s 2018 gubernatorial election.
The voting rights advocate announced her candidacy with a campaign video that highlighted her work in Georgia since her defeat to Kemp four years ago. And she emphasized that "opportunity and success in Georgia shouldn’t be determined by your ZIP code, background or access to power."
