Terry McAuliffe Taps Election Denier Stacey Abrams to Lecture Opponent on ‘Democracy’
McAuliffe and Abrams have both said elections were 'stolen' from them
Collin Anderson • October 8, 2021 4:59 am
Virginia Democratic gubernatorial nominee Terry McAuliffe, who repeatedly claimed Republicans "stole" the White House in 2000, tapped fellow election denier Stacey Abrams to accuse his opponent of working to overthrow American democracy.
McAuliffe on Thursday used Abrams, a failed Georgia gubernatorial candidate, to accuse Glenn Youngkin of "willfully participating in the subversion of our democracy" after the Republican called for voting machine audits. Both McAuliffe and Abrams, however, pushed "stolen" election rhetoric in the absence of evidence.
As Democratic National Committee chair, McAuliffe spent years accusing both Republicans and the Supreme Court of stealing the 2000 election. During a 2004 campaign event, he said Democrats "actually won the last presidential election," as Republicans "stole" it. Abrams, meanwhile, refused to concede after her 2018 loss to Georgia governor Brian Kemp (R.) and said just months ago the race "was stolen from the voters of Georgia." The Democrat's PAC, Fair Fight Action, also claimed without evidence that Georgia's voting machines "erased 100,000 votes in '18."
