After Stacey Abrams lost the 2018 election for governor in Georgia she set up a new voting rights group called Fair Fight Action. Abrams campaign manager, Lauren Groh-Wargo took over as the CEO of that group which promptly filed a federal lawsuit against the state of Georgia claiming the election had been unfair in various ways.
Last month, after years of delay, Fair Fight Action lost that lawsuit on all counts. Today, Politico reports that in just 2019 and 2020, Fair Fight Action paid one smallish law firm more than $9 million to handle that failed case. The person in charge of the lawsuit for the firm was Stacey Abrams’ close friend, Allegra Lawrence-Hardy.
