Transcript for Abrams makes last pitch to become first black female governor in the US
In the meantime, we’re watching several other races tonight. Many are very close in the polls, and some could make history tomorrow night. In Georgia, if Stacey Abrams wins, she would be the nation’s first African-American female governor. ABC’s Steve osunsami and so many of our teams out across the country tonight. Steve has the state of the race in Georgia. Reporter: Democrat Stacey Abrams’ final pitch to become the nation’s first black female governor has her getting out the vote in rural Georgia tonight.

To win tomorrow, someone has to get to 50% of the vote, and there is a third candidate, a libertarian candidate in this race. And right now, this race is very, very tight.
