DALTON, Ga. — As she wound down her campaign speech to hundreds of supporters piled into a community center's gym, Stacey Abrams asked the North Georgia crowd to look back to 2020 to remember the energy and enthusiasm that helped Democrats score upset wins.
"Georgia is the reason we've got Joe Biden," she said to a burst of applause. "The reason that we've got billions of dollars in our coffers, money that's being spent to help keep us afloat."
While other Democratic candidates in Georgia are keeping their distance from Biden and his rock-bottom approval ratings, Abrams is following a different course. She's embracing both her alliance with the president and the legislative agenda he has championed.
