Georgia Democratic Senate challenger Raphael Warnock claimed 2018 Democratic gubernatorial Stacey Abrams's decline to concede was distinct from President Trump's claims challenging this election for the White House race.

"Listen, suppression is something that happens all across our country. It's happened here in the state of Georgia," he said during his Sunday debate against Republican incumbent Sen. Kelly Loeffler.

Warnock alleged Abrams endorsed Republican Gov. Brian Kemp would ultimately be governor, even if she didn't concede. On the other hand, Trump and Loeffler haven't conceded Biden's win, Warnock said. And they have every right to do so.

The Loeffler-Warnock Senate special election runoff is one of two runoffs in Georgia on Jan. 5. The elections will determine which party has control of the Senate next Congress. Sitting Republican Sen. David Perdue is also running against Democratic filmmaker Jon Ossoff at the same time.

Trump returned to the campaign trail on Saturday to hold a rally in Georgia for Republicans to vote for Loeffler and Purdue. At the event in Valdosta, the president asserted his Nov. 3 election against President-elect Joe Biden had been "rigged" against him.

Loeffler didn't specifically agree with Trump's assertion but backed his claims challenging the contest.

"It's unfortunate that the focus is on a debate about who won the election when this process is still playing out," she said.

Abrams lost her race to Republican Gov. Brian Kemp in 2018 by less than 55,000 votes. Theirs was the closest governor’s race since 1966, but it was filled with accusations of voter suppression after Kemp maintained on supervising the battle as Georgia’s secretary of state.

Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger seems to think Abrams is to blame for President Trump’s efforts to flip the 2020 presidential election. At least, that’s what he published in The Wall Street Journal on Sunday, in an op-ed under the headline “Trump Runs the Stacey Abrams Playbook.” Raffensperger has been denounced by Trump for asserting that Joe Biden won Georgia.

Raffensperger, a Republican, tried to form correspondences between Abrams’ denial to concede her loss in the 2018 gubernatorial race to Brian Kemp. “After four years of relentless attacks on the integrity of elections by the most significant mainstream media outlets and pundits, it should come as no surprise that Americans have trouble believing the results of even the most secure elections,” he wrote. Abrams conceded to Kemp 10 days after the election; on Saturday, a month after Trump lost Georgia, The Washington Post reported that he called Kemp to get him to flip the results.
