Stacey Abrams’s failed and debt-ridden campaign paid for TikTok ‘hype’ house and ‘swag’ truck: Report

WaEx: The debt-saddled Stacey Abrams gubernatorial campaign allegedly shelled out for a TikTok “hype house” that was rarely used and a “swag truck” to dish out free merchandise to young people, according to staffers.

Abrams’s campaign raised more than $100 million and now owes over $1 million in debt to numerous vendors, according to Abrams’s campaign manager, Lauren Groh-Wargo. Amid the twice-failed candidate’s campaign expenditures coming under scrutiny, former staffers have revealed certain atypical campaign charges for a political candidate.

The campaign allegedly rented a home near Atlanta’s Piedmont Park that was intended for TikTok creators to use and bolster Abrams, who lost to Gov. Brian Kemp (R-GA) by almost 299,000 votes, Abrams staffers told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. The home has five bedrooms and is now being rented out for $12,500 per month, said the staffers.

In addition, the campaign’s alleged “swag truck” was criticized by staffers because there was apparently no giveaway strategy, the outlet reported. The operation seemed overly expensive and careless, staffers said. MORE
