Republican Brian Kemp’s campaign said on Nov. 7 he had won Georgia’s high-profile governor’s race, but Democratic candidate Stacey Abrams vowed not to concede until all ballots were counted.
“Simply put, it is mathematically impossible for Stacey Abrams to win or force a run-off election,” Kemp spokesman Cody Hall said in a statement on the evening of Nov, 7. “Brian Kemp will now begin his transition as governor-elect of Georgia.”
