Lawrenceville, Georgia – Stacy Abrams’ comments that Georgia is “the worst state in the country to live in” were not to the liking of voters who spoke to Fox News ahead of Tuesday’s primary.
“Why does she think this is the worst? Because she didn’t win the last election, I guess,” said Larry of Lawrenceville.
Abrams, who is running without resistance for the Democrats’ nomination for governor of Peach State, lost in a close race to Republican Brian Kemp in 2018.

Chandra said Abram’s comments were “absolute nonsense.”
Speaking at the Gwinnett County Democrats Gala, Abrams said: “I’m running for governor because I know we need to talk about who we are in this state and what we want for each other and each other.”
“I’m tired of hearing that we are the best state in the country to do business when we are the worst state in the country to live in,” she said, according to a tape published by the Gwinnett Daily Post.

Abrams acknowledged that such a statement would be “politicized” and further explained that the state of mental health and imprisonment in her state could be significantly improved.

“I like that a lot of blacks support blacks,” Brittany said. – I would not say that this is the worst place to live.
She said Chicago was “much more expensive and much more dangerous to live in.”
“Are you taking care of your safety and your children or are you interested in things that are not your job?” Brittany added.

Bob of Gainesville, Georgia, said “competence” is important to him.
“I am Trump’s man, but I will not vote for him [former Sen. David] Perdue, because I don’t think he’s as competent as Kemp, “Bob said.” I think Kemp has proven to be more competent in business, especially here in Georgia. “

“It all comes from good business. You get more jobs, you get better schools, you get a better tax base,” Bob continued. “I think the man is doing a great job and I will definitely vote for him.”
Kemp has a 22-point lead against Purdue, who was backed by former President Trump, according to the latest average for Real Clear Politics.
“At the end of the day, we are looking for candidates who support our values for the benefit of life, our values to have a good economy in which everyone can prosper,” Chandra said.
