Georgia’s Democratic gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams and Oprah Winfrey — who supports Abrams and knocked on voters' doors for her this week — were targeted in a racist robocall evidently funded by a neo-Nazi group on Friday. The voice on the robocall introduces herself as the “magical negro” Oprah, and calls Abrams a “poor man’s Aunt Jemima,” and a candidate “white women can be tricked into voting for, especially the fat ones.” The call claims it is paid for by TheRoadToPower.com, which previously funded racist robocalls against Florida’s Democratic gubernatorial candidate Andrew Gillum.

Here is a robo call that's being sent out. Of course this election has nothing to do with race 🙄 Tuesday is now the 1 and ONLY day to VOTE!!!!! Stacey Abrams
