Oakland News Now – Is Georgia GOP Trying To Willie Horton Stacey Abrams? What About Brian Kemp And Racism?
The Georgia GOP is running an ad that appears to put the African American Democratic Gubernatorial Candidate Stacey Abrams in a dark set of images that carried the implication that blackness is somehow undesirable.

Speaking of racism, what about claims that her challenger GOP Gubernatorial Candidate Brian Kemp is racist? He is said to have borrowed the “Georgia First” slogan from a white supremacist.
Stay tuned.
