Millions Of Dollars From Stacey Abrams’ “Voting Rights” Group Went To Law Firm Run By Her Campaign Chair and College Classmate
GATEWAY PUNDIT ^ | 10/25/2022 | staff

Posted on 10/25/2022 11:09:04 AM PDT by bitt

Twenty-five million dollars in legal fees were spent by Fair Fight Action, Stacey Abrams’ voting rights group over the past two years.

Of the $25 million, $9.5 million went to Allegra Lawrence-Hardy’s law firm – Lawrence-Hardy is the chair of Abrams’ campaign.

And Abrams and Lawrence-Hardy were also classmates at Spelman College.

Politico reported:

The voting rights organization founded by Stacey Abrams spent more than $25 million over two years on legal fees, mostly on a single case, with the largest amount going to the self-described boutique law firm of the candidate’s campaign chairwoman.

Allegra Lawrence-Hardy, Abrams’ close friend who chaired her gubernatorial campaign both in 2018 and her current bid to unseat Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp, is one of two named partners in Lawrence & Bundy, a small firm of fewer than two dozen attorneys.

The firm received $9.4 million from Abrams’ group, Fair Fight Action, in 2019 and 2020, the last years for which federal tax filings are available. Lawrence-Hardy declined to comment on how much her firm has collected from Fair Fight Action in 2021 and 2022 — years in which Fair Fight Action v. Raffensperger, for which Lawrence-Hardy was lead counsel, had most of its courtroom activity.

If it’s good enough for Daley, and it’s good enough for Pandergast
And it’s good enough for Johnson and Kennedy
Then it’s good enough for you peons.
Gimme that old time corruption! Gimme that old time corruption!
Gimme that old time corruption, ‘cause it’s plenty good for you!

Is it safe to assume she’s “on the down low”? I checked Wikipedia and the Personal section is nothing more than a gloss of her many debts and unpaid taxes.

I’ve started getting donation requests from Stacy and several other Democrat candidates. They got a hold of some Republican email addresses. Part of me wants to reply and tell her what I think, but on the other hand, the more money she spends trying to campaign to me, the better.

Who donates to an organization like “fair fight action” founded by Stacey Abrams? Is it developers who were hoping to get contracts with the state if she won the governorship?

Just think of the kind of government we could have if donations could only come from individuals who live in the District where the person is running … be it local. state or federal.

Stacey will do anything she thinks she can get away with. That makes her dangerous.

Is this rather large woman gay? And is the lawyer her partner? Why do we not know about this? Journalists?

Not sure. I suspect Stacey is more an opportunist before anything else. She goes where she thinks the money or influence is, and tries to pander them up for favors.
Your typical greedy, amoral politician.

If there's a postage-free return envelope, pack everything from the mailing into it and let them pay the postage to get their crap back.

Wealthy leftists with political aims and in need of tax deductions.
The money could go to help real people in real need. Just sayin'.
