Stacey Abrams: I Am Behind in the Polls Because Black Men Have Been the Targets of Misinformation

TRANSCRIPT:

ABRAMS: "I do not believe it's because of a deep-welled enthusiasm for my opponent. We know that black voters are often discounted and unfortunately, this year black men have been a very targeted population for misinformation — not misinformation about what they want, but about why they want what they deserve. And my campaign has been the only one that has very intentionally, thoughtfully and consistently reached out. That has been misconstrued as concern when it indeed is just respect."
