Stacey Abrams Nominated To Receive Nobel

"Stacey Abrams—the Democratic politician from Georgia who has been credited as one of the leading figures who helped flip Georgia blue for President Joe Biden in the November 2020 election—has officially been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize for her work on voting rights.

Reuters reported that Norwegian parliament member Lars Haltbrekken announced his nomination earlier today."Abrams' work follows in Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s footsteps in the fight for equality before the law and for civil rights," said Haltbrekken, per the outlet."Abrams' efforts to complete King's work are crucial if the United States of America shall succeed in its effort to create fraternity between all its peoples and a peaceful and just society.""

Good for her. It is however a sad reflection of how screwed up this country is.

She so deserves it! Compared to someone who cried about a rigged election and insists he was the winner..........she took the high road.
