From Fox News: Democrat Stacey Abrams is seriously considering a third-straight run for Georgia governor in 2026, a source familiar confirmed to Fox News Digital.
Abrams, a former Democratic Party leader in the Georgia state legislature and a nationally known voting-rights advocate, narrowly lost to now-Gov. Brian Kemp in the 2018 gubernatorial election. She lost the 2022 rematch to Kemp by nearly eight points.
Kemp, the popular conservative governor, is term limited and cannot seek reelection in 2026. The Cook Political Report, a top nonpartisan political handicapper, ranked the race to succeed Kemp in the battleground state a “toss up” – teeing up a likely competitive race in the Peach State.
Georgia has followed the national trend in the past three presidential elections, all with President Donald Trump at the top of the ticket. While Trump was triumphant in 2016 and 2024, former President Joe Biden won Georgia in 2020.
One Democrat is already in the race. Georgia state senator Jason Esteves announced his campaign for governor earlier this week.
On the Republican side, state Attorney General Chris Carr announced his gubernatorial campaign in November 2024, and Georgia’s Lt. Gov. Burt Jones is reportedly considering entering the race for the Republican nomination.

Meanwhile, President Donald Trump referred to Abrams in a recent interview while discussing fraud.
DOGE reportedly discovered $2 BILLION in taxpayer dollars designated for a fledgling nonprofit called “Power Forward Communities,” which had close ties to Abrams.
