david, just about georgia and stacey abrams, she won huge i think by 50. what does the race tell you, what does the margin tell you? >> well, the race tells me that here's a democrat -- i would just say this all about last night, guys. the information we got last night told us more about where the democratic party is right now where that democratic electorate is more than it tells us about what's going to happen in november. stacey abrams place aid huge bet about the way to run an election is to expand and actually change the makeup of the electorate, bring more democrats into the electorate rather than concentrate even in a red state like georgia to appeal to

let me take one second to thank the other stacey, stacey evans, as soon as stacey abrams won stacey evanstwitter congratulating her and giving her support. that is a really important thing to do and we saw a lot of that in these elections. so i think we're in great shape. we're unified. stacey abrams' theory of the case i think is the right theory of the case. she believes that instead of doing what we used to do, which is to sort of placate, you know, the conservative whites and hope we get enough of their votes and get our african-american and hispanic base out, that's not the way to do it. the way to do it is to excite the daylights out of people about a new candidate, bring everybody together and run for what you believe in and i think we have the right candidate. i think she's terrific. >> jason johnson, you've been covering the stacey versus stacey race, you call stacey abrams' campaign the who go wart's school for black girl magic. you have to explain that. >> i think that's somebody else's quote. >> no, jason said it. >> i'm remote so i couldn't see it. >> jason said it. >> you ju

it was really part of both stacey evans who lost and stacey abrams campaign.tacey abrams got a huge vote of confidence in her pursuit last night. >> and to that end, that stacey abrams snalds that she is unlikely to spend much time pleading with rural whites to return to a democratic party and if you expand that out nationally, conor lamb ran the other way. he ran toward the right or the center now stacey abrams is running toward the left, is this interesting or perilous strategy for democrats? >> national, it's perilous. we know the way political power is divided in this country is not only in geographic centers but across rural areas and that's why you see the lamb strategy -- all of these races nationally. democrats need to outperform significantly nationally in order to take back the house because of how political power is divided. >> looking at the other states overnight, you had amy mcgraph in ken and valdez in texas. the first openly gay candidate to win a major party's gubernatorial nomination in texas. you're the woman and you're the outsider or both?

but stacey evans on the left, and stacey abrams, that's the stacey on the right, she has said that democratictead should be in turning out disengaged democratic voters who stayed home in 2016. well tonight, stacey abrams has now won that primary, meaning she will be the democrats' gubernatorial candidate in georgia in november. and it looks like she has won that race by a ton. for more, we are joined by the great steve kornacki, who is the man you want the talk to on nights like this. steve, what can you tell us? >> well, yeah, look, not much of a contest. we know what democrats in georgia are in the mood for now. put this in some perspective, we talk about how georgia is changing demographically. in 2016, the margin here for donald trump, it was five points. in 2012, mitt romney won this by eight points. this is one democrats think is on the horizon, with the demographic changes, with the influx of folks, especially in the atlanta area. abrams just cleaned up here. nothing geographically here really stands out. the far northern part of the state where there is very northern counties here, th

i think stacey abrams definitely has a chance. what she did in this primary election, she went out there and people criticized her for spending money early, but she put that money on doors and folks to knock those doors and a very heavy field program where she had more touches in every single county in georgia than her democratic opponent. i think we'll see her do some of the similar things in the general election and the question is all about turn-out. i think stacey abrams has a message that speaks to a wide swath of people in georgia. the question is, will they come out? >> is that similar to what doug jones did in a way, to reach out to more democrats -- >> right. and tried to play more in the suburbs. i still think that stacey abrams is a bit of a long shot. i think it's still a pretty safe seat. the demographics of those suburbs around atlanta, for example, i think they're changing. the question is, are they changing fast enough? democrats were very bullish on michelle nunn for example in 2014 for her chances. she end up los

stacey abrams, out for herself, not georgia. >> so, stacey, how do you respond to what will clearly be of attack from your opponents connect are your personal finances to managing a state budget over the next six months? >> i think i will tell anyone who has ever had a real life that it's easy to make decisions when you have plenty of money. but being able to manage a budget when you have to make priorities and put real people first, that's when i'm an expert at. i take care of my parents, i take care of my niece and my grandmother. you can defer taxes, you can't defer cancer treatment payments for your father or putting a roof over the head of your niece. and so what i tell every georgia an is i know they're struggling because i'm living it myself. but what i've been able to do is lead the democratic party and put nus a position where the rga feels compelled to attack me before they have a candidate of their own. this means that we're in a position to win and i plan to take advantage of that. >> you talk about the national profile that you have risen to at this point, which is obvious

last night, stacey abrams beat stacey evans. the staceys down there. she won by a large margin.tial polling was 33-15%. she ended up winning like 73/24% or something like that. it was a very interesting race to watch in my opinion because it shows the democrats, there are two paths to take. try to get middle of the line voters or go really far left. stas save abrams went left and she won -- stasey abrams went left and won. >> for a long time they relied on the support of the black voters in the democratic primaries and more importantly in general elections to get the job done. that is how georgia stayed democratic for longer than the rest of the deep south was because they had the successful fusion between centrist white moderate democrats and black supporters. guess what? the base for democrats in georgia is african-american. that is the truth. these voters chose a liberal, self-identify prod gressive, self-identified member of the resistance and a hardcore liberal democrat who matches their mood and sensibility of this time to be the nominee. they were not interested in a cauc
