Was Democratic politician Stacey Abrams indicted in Georgia for voter fraud? No, that's not true: The false claim was made on a self-described satire page whose logo was removed from the variations of the claim later spread by other accounts. No credible news organization reported on the existence of the purported lawsuit.
The claim originated from a post (archived here) published on Facebook on September 3, 2025. It opened:
The queen of voter's rights used her right to vote...three times.
The post included an image that read:
Stacy Abrams, who championed the cause of 'voter rights', has been indicted in Georgia... for voter fraud.
'Abrams brazenly showed up to vote at three different locations, using three different names'.
This is what the image looked like in the post on Facebook at the time of writing:

The post misspelled the name of Stacey Abrams, a political strategist who previously served as minority leader in the Georgia House of Representatives (archived here) and ran for governor in that state in 2018 (archived here) and 2022 (archived here) and lost both times.
The account on Facebook (archived here) that initially posted the claim showed a disclaimer:
The flagship of the ALLOD network of trollery and propaganda for cash.
Nothing on this page is real.
ALLOD, or "America's Last Line of Defense', is a network of various webpages run by self-professed liberal troll Christopher Blair from Maine, along with friends and allies. Those pages display satire disclaimers, but publish mostly made-up stories with headlines specifically created to trigger Republicans, conservatives and evangelical Christians into angrily sharing or commenting on the story, exposing them to mockery and ridicule.
Every site in the network has an about page that reads (in part):
About Satire
Before you complain and decide satire is synonymous with "comedy":sat·ire
ˈsaˌtī(ə)r
noun
The use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues.Everything on this website is fiction. It is not a lie and it is not fake news because it is not real. If you believe that it is real, you should have your head examined. Any similarities between this site's pure fantasy and actual people, places, and events are purely coincidental and all images should be considered altered and satirical. See above if you're still having an issue with that satire thing.
Articles from Blair's sites frequently get copied by "real" fake news sites that omit the satire disclaimer and other hints that the stories are fake. This time, for example, the claim was shared -- here (archived here) and here (archived here) -- in the form of an image that cropped out the ALLOD logo and paraphrased the text on black bands surrounding the image in an apparent attempt to avoid detection.
This is what those images looked like on X:

Searches across news reports on Google (archived here) and Yahoo (archived here) did not show media reports corroborating the claim reviewed in this fact check. A broad searches for the politician's name across the U.S. Department of Justice website (archived here) and the Georgia Attorney General website (archived here) didn't yield relevant matches, and Google Scholar Case Law (archived here) did not display court records suggesting the existence of any such indictment.
