Delusional: Stacey Abrams falsely claims people in Georgia don’t have the right to vote — after praising high voter turnout

Democrat Stacey Abrams must truly live in alternating realities or universes.  According to the former Democrat candidate for Governor, who apparently maintains she’s the REAL governor of the state, falsely claimed that people in Georgia don’t have the right to vote.  This came after she bragged about the high voter turnout in the election she lost.

“You don’t have the right to vote in the state of Georgia. We have the opportunity to possibly think about maybe being able to participate in the right to vote in the state of Georgia. … We don’t know the truth because there wasn’t a fair fight,” she said at a DNC gala, according to Eric Bradner, a national political reporter for CNN.

But this is what she told Joy Reid back in April: “I ran a race where we tripled Latino, Asian-Pacific Islander turnout, increased youth participation by 139%, increased black turnout by 40%… the highest share of white voters in a generation… Winning… is about building the largest coalition possible.”

Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?

So, which is it?  Was Abrams lying then or is she lying now?  Or was she lying both times?

And what does it say about those in her audience who, no doubt, believed every word she said, despite it being demonstrably false.

Twitter wasn’t impressed:

Then again, “if” worms carried shotguns, birds probably wouldn’t eat them…

Might be?

Sad, isn’t it?

Should be, but she’s not…  She’s a Democrat, after all…

Then there’s this…

Hmmm…

We tend to agree.
