GA-05: John Lewis' future successor

[brucejoel99]

Stacey Abrams' state house district is in Lewis' Congressional district. If she wanted to go to Congress, she definitely has the name recognition and political clout following her 2018 Governor's race to win a likely crowded Democratic primary field.

And this would probably be her only legitimate hope of continuing her political career at this point because there's no way in hell that she's able to win a re-match with Kemp after her blatant campaign for VP.

Most Georgia voters will forget about her VP campaign by the end of the year.

Considering how close 2018 was, "most Georgia voters" forgetting about it wouldn't be good enough. She'd need all Georgia voters (& then some) to forget about her VP campaign by the 2022 election. Not happening, especially if/when Kemp attempts to hammer it home over & over again.

Keisha Lance Bottoms?

That would be something of a demotion, wouldn't it?

No. Federal level is higher than municipal level.

Who says?

Me. Senate is highest statewide. Next is governor. Next is other statewide. Next is House. Next is state legislature. Next is mayor.

It's all subjective, but c'mon: the GA state legislature would be a step down from Mayor of Atlanta.

Kemp has to do some serious work to repair his reputation before he can even think about her VP campaign.

Not if it's a Biden midterm.
