ATLANTA — When Stacey Abrams ran for governor in 2018, Brian Kemp's advisers worried that she'd carve a path to victory by pulling off a dual narrative of being both an icon of the left and a pragmatic consensus-builder to middle-of-the-road voters.
Though she struggled to navigate that balancing act four years ago, Abrams may be in a better position to pose such a threat as she prepares for a potential rematch against Kemp.
Already a household name to many liberal Democrats, she's so far put her pledge to expand Medicaid — an issue aimed at a broader slice of the electorate — above all other policies.
