It's a pretty bold strategy to claim that your campaign was the victim of voter suppression in an election you just won, but that's what Georgia Senator Raphael Warnock claimed in his victory speech.
Wait...Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-GA): “Just because people endured long lines ... the rain, and the cold, and all kinds of tricks in order to vote doesn’t mean that voter suppression does not exist. It simply means that you, the people, have decided that your voices will not be silenced.” pic.twitter.com/O0AlgsG7pJ

So everyone was able to vote but some people stood in long lines, so, therefore, voter suppression still exists?
This is just totally ridiculous. Of course, there's no voter suppression in Georgia. Georgia has some of the loosest voting rules in the country. But there's a narrative that it exists.
And Democrats can never let facts, even the fact that they're winning elections, get in the way of a good story.
