Stacey Abrams has decided not to run for President in 2020 but has instead decided to focus her efforts on fighting voter suppression.
According to The NY Times, Abrams, the Georgia politician who captured national attention during her unsuccessful run for governor in 2018, announced her new initiative called Fair Fight 2020, which takes its name from a group she began last year after her election loss.
The initiative will work with state parties in battleground states to more closely monitor voter protection ahead of next year’s general election.
“There are only two things stopping us in 2020: that people have a reason to vote, and that they have the right to vote,” Ms. Abrams said, at the International Union of Painters and Allied Trades convention in Las Vegas. “I’ve decided to leave it to a whole bunch of other people to make sure they have a reason to vote.”
