Stacey Abrams: ‘Identity Politics Is Exactly Who We Are And It’s Exactly How We Won’
by Ryan Saavedra @realsaavedra
Failed Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams, who has repeatedly falsely claimed that she won her race last year despite losing by 55,000 votes, said on Wednesday that Democrats “won” because of “identity politics.”
Speaking at the Center for American Progress’s Ideas Conference, Abrams said: “The notion of identity politics has been peddled for the past 10 years and it’s been used as a dog whistle to say we shouldn’t pay too much attention to the voices coming into progress. I would argue that identity politics is exactly who we are and exactly how we won.”
Abrams, who said it was “disturbing” and “distressing” that then-candidate Donald Trump might not accept the results of the 2016 election, has repeatedly claimed that she won her election and has stated multiple times without evidence that the election suppressed voters, despite receiving an all-time high record turnout.
