Former Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams has started a new tax-exempt organization called Fair Count Inc., her latest in a string of so-called dark money groups that have anchored her political career.
Abrams, a rising star in the Democratic Party, narrowly lost a historic election for governor in November 2018 that would have made her the first African-American female governor in the nation’s history. Despite a record midterm turnout, Abrams continues to blame her loss on voter suppression—an issue she champions.
