Evans said she will do everything in her power to make sure Stacey Abrams is successful and encouraged her supporters to do the same.

(The NBC affiliate maybe screwed up the text?)
The video of the speech is the important part, I think. A great example of party unity.

It should read Evans said she will do everything to make sure "Stacey Abrams" is successful.

(34,127 posts)I voted for Evans, but I'm happy to vote for Abrams.
This gubernatorial race is going to be different.
Republicans have been veering to the right for 30 years and Georgia Democratic gubernatorial candidates tried to occupy the middle-left.
That strategy worked for Democrats through the 80s and 90s, but not so well in the 2000s and 2010s.
Now we have a Democratic candidate veering to the progressive left and Republicans veering to the hateful right with no one in the middle.
How this works out is really unclear.
