Stacey Abrams: “There is malfeasance that is permeating the entirety of our voting system, and it’s exacerbated by the incompetence of the leadership that refuses to number one: do its job, and two: doesn’t seem to understand what the job is. That’s what we face in Georgia.” Aired on 6/10/2020.

Abrams Slams Georgia Leaders For ‘Incompetence’ And ‘Malice’ In Election Disaster | All In | MSNBC
It is a system designed that way minorities don’t vote.

Oops!
@K H I don’t know where you got that information from. She lost fairly in Georgia but she still grieving, her radical left ideas didn’t impress my fellow Georgians. So stop it’s pathetic and crazy 😫 and the media keeps naming her in conversation to keep her relevant. It’s sad 🤒🤧
It’s not going to work for long because Georgia will be majority-minority in about ten years.
@K H ..Not so. Obama won the same way Bush and Trump did using the same rules. The people in every state have a voice in our fair election process. (Trump won 3,084 counties while Hillary won only 57). The popular vote is based on the people in every county in every state. The popular vote YOU are referring to only includes a few counties in 2 or 3 blue states. That’s not how elections work. It makes no difference about the population numbers in given county. What matters is making sure the people in every county decide our elections. Democrats don’t like that fair process because it doesn’t give them the upper hand and huge advantage. Would democrats still want the electoral college eliminated if a few heavily populated counties had mostly republican voters and were in red states??? I don’t think so. They would be fighting tooth and nail to keep it. You know I’m right about that. To democrats all they think about is making elections unfair to give them the upper hand and huge advantage to win. They want to win using any means necessary, even if fraud is used.
That is precisely why they do this.
A racist, an adulterer and a draft dodger walk into a McDonald’s…
The cashier asks, “What can I get you Mr. Trump?”
@J West , The Belgian nurse’s joke:
What does Trump and a beer can have in common?
They both have foamy whiteheads.
(The very blonde Swedes still laugh.)
@J West , Belgian nurse killing it. Swedes in danger. Her joke for you :
You were not spoiled as a child;
you just smell that way.
@J West , The Californian nurse’s latest joke:
Trump loves money, TV
and one of his kids.
(Not sure the Swedes can make their rounds.)
@J West , Swede nurse:
Maybe electing a reality TV host who dodged the draft,
is a compulsive liar,
and cheats at golf
was a bad idea.
@J West , The Belgian nurse is killing it. Her latest:
Did Jesus ever have head lice?
Did he heal it?
When a country can’t even get the basic right of its citizens to vote guaranteed it has no credibility when it comes to criticism of other countries for the way they conduct their elections.
You’d think after 244 years of voting we’d have a pretty reliable system by now
It was planned. It all worked exactly as the republicans wanted it.
@Tylorian You sure have. You’ve seen more videos on conspiracy theories and new age voodoo than everyone I’ve ever bought weed from combined.
Derek Brandell yes ! With our tax money.
Derek Brandell : Yes! It was PREDICTED TWO YEARS AGO! It’s maddening! Everyone SAID back in 2018 that they would FAKE a, “screw up,” in Georgia, next time. And HERE WE ARE! Obvious Criminals! The GOP are GOING TO JAIL if they lose in November. YOU KNOW THEY WILL CHEAT! Be prepared to FIGHT for your Republic America!
@Mic Little . Georgia is a welfare state. Without ny and cali, your state would collapse
Right… just like Iowa. Tulsi is also a russian spy and Biden didnt call black children roaches for some reason. People like you are why we are force fed idiots like Biden when we could have had Tulsi. Look into who was actually responsible. Her allegations were investigated. You will find dem incompetence behind the curtain on this one. The question really is whether this is intentional incompetence or not. I bet you would eat an entire package of expired hotdogs in one sitting. Very low IQ.
He should answer to Georgians! He should RESIGN or be REMOVED.
@Nef Africia Racism is still alive and kicking in smooth brain democrats.
@Pha Q “I know what my limits are, obviously it’s a lesson YOU need to learn”
I will always engage with my “neighbors” in good faith. BUT you are correct. If you have a bottom it is much much lower than mine.
What I learned from my exchange with you is the wisdom of the old saying “…never wrestle with a PIG…”
@Nef Africia And I am reminded of the bible verse: Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast. ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them. under their feet, and turn again and rend you.
It’s a great read and you would benefit highly from it’s pages.
@Pha Q “It’s a great read and you would benefit highly from it’s pages.”
LOLOL!!!
“The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose.
An evil soul producing holy witness…” – William Shakespeare, The Merchant of Venice
@Nef Africia I’ve not cast you as evil as you would me. The words you typed into this comment section should burn deeply into your brain to reflect the disparities you’ve so easily cast upon me. But I fear you have no mirrors within your life to show your hypocrisy and bigotry that you so willingly toss at opposing ideas.
I know you’re just a person with bad ideas, you think I’m a bad person with ideas.
This is truly what separates us. And will continue to keep us separate. If this is your goal, you’ve achieved it.
This is ridiculous! I can’t remember ever waiting more than ten minutes to vote – ever! The system is truly broken.

@paul herring…..Polls close at specific time and they don’t stay open for days on end
@paul herring
That’s right. After 8:p.m., poll workers stand behind the last person in line.
The last one in line and all ahead of them are entitled to cast their vote.
If the polling place has a long line waiting to get a booth, I fill out my ballot where I am and afterwards I walk up to the machine & cast my ballot, watch it register and leave.
@BKD Vickers So your Trump loving goal is to leave voters in precincts that vote majority Democrat waiting in hours long lines after arriving to those lines long before the polls close and then deny them the right to vote if closing time arrives before they reach the head of the line? How perfectly undemocratic of you.Obviously that comes as no surprise from a Trump bunker baby.Wonder what you’d say if that precinct turning voters away was full of Republican voters.I’ll bet you’d be outraged wouldn’t you.
@paul herring It’s not our fault if democrats don’t vote far enough in advance so they don’t have to wait in line. Rules are rules. Every election has lines on the final day of voting. It’s always been that way throughout history and will continue to be that way. Plan ahead so you don’t have to wait in line. That’s what I do every election
and we all thought that when Kemp so blatently stole the last election, so openly that it could not happen again. How wrong we were. These people have no shame.
It’s called win at no expense.
This voter suppression continues to happen. This is how she lost the governorship
And the tRolls go nuts! Short walk.
@Gyrene_asea Quit your b*tching about losing in 2016. Wake up. Real America isnt listening your commie talking points. #Winning #Trump2020
… and see above. : D) Luv it when they wrap themselves in resentment and the StarsNBars, then start dry-humping the nearest Jefferson Davis statue.
@Q Smellyweasel23 Isn’t it wonderful when corrupt Republican operatives get to create their own narrative for calling mail in voting out as prone to fraud by committing mail in vote fraud.Mail in voting has almost zero history in this entire country of being subject to fraud any more than any other method of voting.The US military’s overseas members vote exclusively by mail and have done so for over a century now.Oregon sends mail in ballots to all registered voters and has no history of mail in ballot fraud.Show me the criminal cases involving mail in ballot fraud that you claim has any real effect on who wins an election.You can’t because no such case exists and you know it doesn’t.Trump’s ploy with mail in ballot fraud is nothing more than a case of creating the narrative in advance to claim fraud caused the defeat he is going to suffer come Nov 3rd.The worlds greatest narcissist can’t handle the idea of losing.
@paul herring One of the latest proofs of mail in corrupt voting is from a republican leader. You have zero credibility for denying reality. The virus is not dangerous, police are not corrupt, America is not racist, and Trump will win in a landslide in November. Facts. #Winning #Trump2020
The Georgia GOP Competently AND Maliciously sabotaged the election for their personal gain. It’s CALLED MAGA!!!!
Then why didn’t investigations from multiple outside agencies reveal anything that you or sore loser Stacy said??? She went to court with her accusations and NO wrongdoing was found. It’s all lies!!!
@Just another day in the salt mine What’s wrong? Did I say something you didn’t agree with?
Get over it, Jr.
Zed Dead : Everyone SAID back in 2018 that they would FAKE a, “screw up,” in Georgia, next time. And HERE WE ARE! Obvious Criminals! The GOP are GOING TO JAIL if they lose in November. YOU KNOW THEY WILL CHEAT! Be prepared to FIGHT for your Republic America!👍✌️
@Ash Roskell go paste your copied tripe elsewhere, troll
@firestream93 I think we are all impressed at how pathetic your life must be to spend your time acting like a fat little playground bully. Pathetic
I love Stacey Abrams! I think she’s a great person, educated, and would make a great VP!
@Barbara Langille trump 2020
Bishop Bishop 777 not as ugly as you are!
@Mark Melville The working class, such as I, is making the economy go, home boy. #Winning
Figure she has a very good chance of being the candidate.
@Fifer McGee Doesnt matter. Trump gonna run away with the election. #Winning
More than half the people will be voting by mail in November.
That’s correct. And voting by mail in November means the ballots will arrive 2 days after the election. That’s how many ignorant people there are in this country.
@BKD Vickers Not if you mail in early and take your ballot to an official dropbox.
@Doctor James Regardless of how they do it, there are still plenty of ignorant people who would wait too late to cast their vote and then claim voter suppression. You and I both know that.
@BKD Vickers I’m pretty sure that, due to the current climate, mail-in voters will be encouraged to get their ballots in early. But you’re right, there will always be some ignorant people out there.
@Doctor James Democrats have a stronger chance of winning the election simply because historically they are much better at getting people to vote. But they have to keep pushing people to do it because many still don’t vote in all elections unless they like the candidate. And when registered voters don’t exercise their right to vote on a regular basis, they are warned 2 years in advance they will be removed the voter rolls as required by law and they have to re-register. Every 7 years voter roles have to be cleaned up.
It wasn’t incompetence, they knew exactly what they were doing. Stacey Abrams of all people knows that. This was just a dress rehearsal for November.
Nevada had mail in ballots stolen, misplaced or lost. People stood in long lines also. Looks like trump’s people are afraid of losing.
Just a good reason why we don’t need mail-in voting anywhere . It opens the door wide for fraud. People are stupid to wait until the last moment to vote. They know there will be lines.
They are taking your voting rights away. Democracy is being murdered.
Repubs know they can’t stay in power if they don’t cheat through gerrymandering and voter suppression.
Does anyone know why Biden called black children roaches!?
Exactly we need a uprising against voter oppression.
What is happening in Georgia is undoubtedly deliberate and criminal.
REMEMBER ALL THE “CRIMINALS ARE ABOVE THE LAW” RIGHT NOW, THAT’S WHY THEY ARE DOING THE CRAP THEY’RE DOING, THAT’S WHY “WHITE RACE SOLDIER COPS” WERE MURDERING ALL BLACK AND BROWN PEOPLE, THE LAWS ARE NOT BEING ENFORCED CORRECTLY UNDER “TRAITOR TRUMP” AND HIS “SICK-DEMENTED MINONS.”
@michael caraway Pure nonsense. You believe the myths and lies being spread. It’s democrats who can’t be trusted during elections.
It’s a democratic hoax to try an get mail in voting instead so they can rig the election. They will do anything to not have trump win. Anything including murder
Vivian Simes Lol trump is winning in 2020 you need to take a look at the hypocrite democrat leaders and how they are destroying the US. Cities are burning right now because of democrats telling people to do it. Animals don’t need to run this country or any country
@Vivian Simes Three comments right in a row. No wonder you are a Biden supporter. Any idea why he called black children roaches? Seems pretty racist to me.
It’s sad. She’s been working this for almost two years and it’s still this bad.
That’s because she’s a sore loser. She took all her accusations to court and no wrongdoing was found. There were no violations. There was no voter suppression. All election laws were followed.
@BKD Vickers Keep repeating that lie.It’s still false.
Please get your head out of the sand. That’s all Republicans know how to do is CHEAT…
@Rosalyn Jeffery Following the election rules and laws is not cheating
REPUBLICANS ARE TRYING TO CHEAT THE ELECTION, PERIOD.
@patrick quinn Because theres always a chance it can still be hacked, also alot of older people may not have a phone or computer available to them.
Pure nonsense. It’s republicans who are wanting to prevent fraud from occurring. That’s why we have election laws that have to be followed….
@Crimdor You mean they didn’t force them to go home.They just forced them to wait in line for up to 6 hours while Ivanka Trump’s voting machines proved to be about as incompetent as the Donald himself.Well now isn’t that convenient.So GA’s sec of state takes no responsibility at all for what we’ll call “extreme voting discouragement”. Meanwhile almost no precincts in whiter and richer areas had long lines at all.Now the question you Repugs have to answer is this: Were the long lines in non white and poorer precincts due to voting machine irregularities? Or were they due to very large turnout in those primarily Democratic leaning precincts? Because the latter could mean there’s a huge blue wave in the offing come Nov 3rd.
Maybe the serious majority of this country’s citizens are getting ready to give Repugs a shellacking “the likes of which we’ve never seen”.
@patrick quinn If you’re looking for someone who’s going to change that I can assure you Donald Trump and the Pepug party aren’t interested in helping you out.They’re the ones creating and passing laws designed to make voting harder, not easier.Check out ALEC (American Legislative Exchange Council). They were created specifically to come up with legislation that serves to depress voting and then pass that legislation on to Repug majority legislatures across the nation.Then there’s Repug gerrymandering from 2010 that forces Democrats to have to win the overall vote in states like VA by 8% or more to gain the majority in a state legislature.Simply put if you want to see voting made easier voting blue is the only way you’re ever going to make that happen.
Goh Boon : Everyone SAID back in 2018 that they would FAKE a, “screw up,” in Georgia, next time. And HERE WE ARE! Obvious Criminals! The GOP are GOING TO JAIL if they lose in November. YOU KNOW THEY WILL CHEAT! Be prepared to FIGHT for your Republic America! 👍✌️
I don’t trust many politicians, however, Stacey Abrams is a true American for the people.
Never trust a politician, only a public servant.
Shes a true sore loser! She lost by over 60K votes and still insists she is the rightful Governor! She screams ‘racism’ about everything!!!
you sure about that?
o0JaeAllDay0o pls tell me where Im wrong
That’s why Trump won. He is not a politician. Politicians like Nancy Pelosi have been in politics for 40 years, what did she do? Nothing!
Kemp needs to be removed from office. He is just as incompetent as Trump.
I would REALLY like her to be our next Vice President!
Maybe on the new racist Sesame Street that’s about it
