Stacey Abrams asks Biden to campaign in Georgia after Atlanta snub

Stacey Abrams wants White House support on the campaign trail ahead of next month’s Georgia gubernatorial election after snubbing President Biden in January

The Democratic contender said she is in talks with the White House, asking the administration to lend a hand in her battle against Republican incumbent Gov. Brian Kemp, who she lost to in 2018.

“We’ve reached out to — we’ve been in conversations with the Biden administration, and we look forward to having folks from the Biden administration, including the president himself if he can make it,” Ms. Abrams told Fox News on Friday.
