The New York Times is flashing the red warning lights for Democrats on the Stacey Abrams campaign in Georgia.

Georgia Democrats have grown increasingly pessimistic about Stacey Abrams’s chances of ousting Gov. Brian Kemp, pointing to her struggles to rally key parts of her party’s coalition and her inability to appeal to moderate Republicans.https://t.co/KEiD0zkQsn

She’s seeking a real term as governor after serving an imaginary one after refusing to concede and pushing — without evidence — “The Big Lie” that the election was stolen from her last time.

In 2018, Jean-Pierre sided with Democrat Stacey Abrams, who refused to concede the Georgia gubernatorial election amid claims of voter suppression.https://t.co/ouogfnxbZ1

In that state’s Senate race, however, Republican Herschel Walker is running strong against incumbent Raphael Warnock. Both candidates are black men, and both are more appealing than Abrams.

.@ReverendWarnock believes that America is a bad country full of racist people. I believe that we’re a great country full of generous people. Raphael Warnock and Joe Biden want to divide us. I want to bring us together! >> https://t.co/6EtrO2A5de#gasen #gapol pic.twitter.com/tLKt3YA9qI

As the New York Times noted, black men are turned off by Abrams and leaning more Republican than in recent years. This is a “yuge” opportunity for Republicans.

Despite mainstream media narratives and polls suggesting Herschel Walker is struggling against incumbent Sen. Rafael Warnock, D-Ga., The Trafalgar Group’s latest poll has the former Georgia Bulldogs football star leading the midterm race. https://t.co/pzuhcK6tkf pic.twitter.com/rjgbuNoYsp

According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Abrams is only getting about 80% of black men in Georgia, which is way low for a Democrat.
