Excerpts from article:
...Stacey Abrams, the former Georgia gubernatorial candidate who's now focusing on tackling voter suppression head on, said she "Absolutely" sees herself running for president one day, but for the 2020 cycle, she "Would be honored" to run for vice president with whoever the Democratic nominee is.
..."Why should we not want someone to have the power to fix the problems and the brokenness that we have?" Abrams told the hosts of ABC's "The View." "I want to do good, and there is no stronger platform than president of the United States. And that's a position I want to one day hold."
...Perhaps bolstering her chances of being picked by any of the candidates running, Abrams declined to endorse one candidate over the other, saying her "Job right now is to fix our democracy" by ensuring everyone who's eligible to vote, can.
...Back in November, a spokesperson for Abrams told ABC News that the funding goal for the teams in all 20 states was $5 million - and billionaire Democratic presidential candidate Mike Bloomberg made a donation of that amount to Abrams' Fair Fight Political Action Committee on Dec. 20, according to the campaign contribution disclosure report filed with the Georgia Government Transparency and Campaign Finance Commission.
..."The census undergirds almost every political and civic decision we make," Abrams said.
