\nFox News co-host Dagen McDowell said Thursday that Oprah Winfrey ‘s campaign efforts for Democratic Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams are \u00ab\u00a0going to get that woman elected,\u00a0\u00bb making Abrams the first black female governor in the country.
Winfrey, stumping for Abrams in Marietta, Ga., on Thursday, cheered \u00ab\u00a0everybody gets a vote!\u00a0\u00bb as rallygoers chanted along with her. A clip of the exchange was played heavily across cable news on Thursday.
\u201cA lot of celebrities can raise money for you if you are running for political office. Oprah Winfrey has a spiritual connection with so much of this country, and it was built over years and years of doing that talk show,\u00a0\u00bb McDowell said on Fox’s \u00ab\u00a0Outnumbered.\u00a0\u00bb
\u00ab\u00a0I said, when we were watching it, ‘If that women can get folks to eat pizza with a cauliflower crust on it, she is going to get that woman elected the first black female governor.\u2019 She took people to church,\u00a0\u00bb McDowell added.
Juan Williams, serving as a guest co-host on \u00ab\u00a0Outnumbered\u00a0\u00bb Thursday, said Winfrey is key in reaching white suburban voters who will play a significant role in deciding the midterm elections.
\u00ab\u00a0I think what you are seeing here now is Democrats \u2014 especially in so many of these suburban House districts where Trump carried it, or it was close \u2014 are saying, \u2018We are counting on those white suburban women this time, especially in the aftermath of all the trouble we have seen with the violence, to say we want a check on Trump,’ \u00a0\u00bb said Williams, who also serves as an opinion contributor for The Hill. \u00ab\u00a0I think that\u2019s what you are hearing from Oprah.\u201d
Recent polls have shown Abrams and her Republican opponent, Georgia Secretary of State Brian Kemp, in a dead heat, with Abrams leading by a single point.
In addition to speaking at an event boosting Abrams, Oprah is also knocking on doors for the candidate to encourage Georgians to vote.<\/p>\n
