Two-time Georgia gubernatorial Democratic nominee Stacey Abrams has been enlisted by the state Democratic Party to help flip the state’s House with a listening tour around districts that topped 45% support for Vice President Kamala Harris.

Abrams, the former Georgia House Minority Leader, ran for Georgia governor in 2018 and 2022 but lost both times to incumbent Gov. Brian Kemp (R-GA).

She’s working alongside current Georgia Minority Leader Carolyn Hugley to target the 11 seats between state Democrats and a House majority. Georgia Democrats lost a chance to grab the majority in 2024, winning 80 seats out of 180 in the chamber for a net gain of 2 seats. Nine districts saw a margin of victory under 10%.

Abrams appeared with Hugley on Thursday in Montezuma, a majority-black area in Southwest Georgia. The former gubernatorial nominee will also make stops in rural areas, LaGrange, and Dawson, where the state party sees potential.

“What’s happening in D.C. is terrible. And it’s coming to visit us soon,” she said, urging listeners not to lose faith as they fight Trump’s “no-good, tyrannical, terrible” platform.

“It feels like we are in the wilderness again,” she added. “But I’m here to tell you we’ve been here before. We’ve got out before. And we are going to do it again.”

Abrams hasn’t said whether she will run for governor in 2026, though Kemp is term-limited. She told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution that she was “laser-focused” on fighting Trump’s policies.

“The only way to reverse the carnage that we are seeing coming from Republicans is to elect Democrats who do the right thing,” she said.

All seats in the state Senate will also be up in 2026, though that chamber is less likely to flip because it had just one district with a voting margin under 10% in 2024. Republicans hold a 32-to-23 majority, and a special election in a GOP district is pending.

Georgia will also elect new members of Congress in the House and Senate in 2026, along with a new governor. Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-GA) was expected to draw a challenge from Kemp, but the Republican opted out of the race, leaving Republicans looking for an ideal candidate to replace him in the swing state.

As for the state’s gubernatorial race, former Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance-Bottoms and Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr are early favorites among the few declared candidates to win the Democratic and Republican nominations, respectively.
