Abrams makes history with Atlanta Pride march
Atlanta Journal-Constitution ^ | 10/14/18 | Greg Bluestein

Stacey Abrams emerged from her SUV on a busy Midtown Atlanta street corner on Sunday with a declaration to make to the throngs of voters attending the Atlanta Pride Parade, the annual celebration of LGBT rights in the heart of the city.

“We’re here because we stand together, because we know that allies do not run from fights. And because we know we all have pride in Georgia,” she told cheering supporters, adding: “We stand with you and not against you.”

Shortly after, she became the first major-party nominee for governor to march in the parade, a vibrant spectacle that attracted just about every major corporation in Atlanta, dozens of political candidates and tens of thousands of Georgians.

Her contingent, led by a group that included U.S. Rep. Hank Johnson and his protégé, former 6th District hopeful Jon Ossoff, hoisted rainbow-colored flags and stark-blue political signs.

Pander, pander, pander. They say this race is tied because all the black voters will turn out to vote for any black Dem. But they said Ossoff would win too.

Marching for the sake of marching.
Are all those people even registered, or are they at the rallies for the T-Shirts, the free chicken and bottled tea?

She was there to remind blacks that they are old news and that illegals and trans are the face of the modern Democrat party.

Probably true, IF the election was left up to Atlanta, but the rest of the state has very different values.

Atlanta is one of those blue zones, but, that’s where all the media congregates, thus easier “camera time” for abrams.

Too bad she's not candidate for mayor of Atlanta, huh?

The rest of the state gets a vote too.

Is Hank back from Guam? He was checking to see if it tipped over.

That's why she's doing this pre-emptive strike on Kemp over this so-called voter registration "scandal," which in reality it was merely enforcing the law until some leftist judge forced Kemp to let the 53,000 or so voters vote.

Typical usual disgusting slimeball Democrat tactics, as people are rejecting them in droves. I can't wait until Nov. 7th and this woman will realize she'll have to get a real job.

I actually got into a back and forth with Cynthia Tucker back in 2001. We called each other names via email. It was fun.
