CLAIM: Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-GA) claimed at the Democrat National Convention (DNC) that red states have passed “voter suppression laws” since the 2020 election.
VERDICT: False. Warnock was referring to voter ID laws requiring Americans to show proof of identification when voting. Analysis of elections in states with voter ID laws has shown that there is no so-called “suppression” of votes as a result.
