Georgia’s Democratic gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams said Tuesday the Democrats’ “blue wave” in November would be comprised of those who are “documented and undocumented.”

“The thing of it is, the blue wave is African American. It is white. It is Latino. It is Asian-Pacific Islander,” she said, going through a diverse list of groups.

“It is made up of those who’ve been told that they are not worthy of being here. It is comprised of those who are documented and undocumented,” she said.

The Washington Free Beacon emailed Abrams’ campaign to ask what role undocumented immigrants will play in the midterms if they are not legal voters. {snip}

Republican Governors Association spokesman John Burke said counting on help from illegal immigrants shows Abrams is extreme.

Abrams has embraced the mantle of liberalism, saying she doesn’t need “conservative values” to win in Georgia. She also deflected concerns about how much of her donation money has come from out of state by saying Georgia is a “national state.”
