Stacey Abrams is set to reveal soon whether she’ll run for president or senator or something else. But in recent months, the Democrat has mounted an effort to expand her donor and political network that will make her an instant force whatever she decides
Stacey Abrams is set to reveal soon whether she’ll run for president or senator or something else.
At the reception for Abrams hosted by Boxer, held at a five-star Beverly Hills hotel in late February, local Democratic leaders and entertainment industry donors heard her talk about her work against voter suppression and about her brother’s struggle with addiction. After the event, she was mobbed by attendees.
Abrams has said publicly she’s considering running for Senate against first-term Republican Sen. David Perdue, but at the same time hasn’t ruled out running for president. The flurry of attention over a potential presidential bid shows how she’s catapulted in the past year from a little-known Democrat locked in a competitive primary for governor to star status in national Democratic politics.
In contrast to Beto O’Rourke, who wrote Medium posts and took a road trip after his loss, Abrams has been keenly focused on the nuts and bolts of building her political base. She’s attended dozens of events across the country, according to descriptions of her itinerary from sources close to Abrams and others who’ve spoken with her. She also drew high marks for her performance delivering Democrats’ response to President Donald Trump’s State of the Union speech in February.
