The 2020 election cycle ended less than a month ago in Georgia, but 2022 has already begun.
A group of Republican strategists has created a new independent group targeted at former Democratic candidate Stacey Abrams ahead of the 2022 election, even though Abrams has not announced another political campaign.
In 2018 Abrams lost the governor’s race to Brian Kemp by 1.5 points, and some Republicans are assuming she will challenge him again in 2022. Kemp has already pledged to run again.
The new Republican group, called “Stop Stacey” is independent of Kemp’s campaign and calls itself “a national, grassroots organization of engaged conservatives.”
“After losing the White House and United States Senate in 2020, grassroots Republicans across Georgia and America are standing together to stop radical Stacey Abrams,” said Jeremy Brand, the group’s senior strategist in a news release.
