Just found out that someone who is a family friend is challenging Rep. Gerald Greene (R) in a majority-black district in rural SW Georgia. Hillary won here 52-46, and Obama 2012 won here 56-43 (!) so clearly Abrams should provide enough coattails to help her over the line. Abrams will be opening two field offices down there in the coming weeks so I suspect the Democratic presence in the community to be strong over the next 8 months presuming Abrams wins the primary of course Tongue .

>Republican in majority black district

Lolwut
He switched from Democrat to Republican after he won re-election in 2010, and didn't have a serious challenger during Presidential years. He only won by 7 in 2014 with black turnout down. Don't see how he escapes this time with Trump mid-term + black woman at the top of the ticket (potentially).
