Stacey Abrams’s New Georgia Project Shutters After Copping to Illegal Campaign Activity

WFB:

The New Georgia Project, the voter registration charity founded by Democrat Stacey Abrams and once led by Sen. Raphael Warnock (D., Ga.), is no more, just months after admitting to illegally campaigning for Abrams’s failed 2018 Georgia gubernatorial campaign.

The New Georgia Project admitted in January to violating 16 state laws in 2018 by illegally campaigning in favor of Abrams’s first gubernatorial bid. The group agreed to pay a $300,000 fine after confessing to investing $3.2 million that year to operate at least 10 field offices across the state to engage in direct voter contact in support of Abrams, despite presenting itself to the public as a nonpartisan charitable voter registration group.

Founded by Abrams in 2014 and once touted as “the poster child” of her efforts to boost Democratic voter turnout in Georgia, the New Georgia Project and its affiliated action group announced Thursday that both organizations would be dissolved following several years of internal turmoilfinancial struggles, and run-ins with the law.

Since 2020, the two groups have squandered more than $81 million in contributions from major left-wing dark money groups, including the Tides Foundation and the George Soros-bankrolled Center for Popular Democracy. On Thursday, they called for “strong and courageous leaders” to step forward and continue their work of “building a just and truthful world” in a statement announcing their dissolution, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported.
