My understanding is that under GA law, you must have been registered at the time of the original race to be allowed to vote in the run-off.

Don't quote me on this, but from what I read, that rule applies to local and state elections, and the Federal elections are not named/specified; meaning that it is "legal" for them to do same day registrations (and vote )in the Federal election.

Someone needs to verify that law.

Not true. Although it should be.

I hope you are right, but that is not mentioned here:

However, I suspect that same-day registration is not available to Georgia nonresidents.

It would be good to know how serious this threat is.

I mailed the Georgia statute 21-2-501 to both Perdue and Loeffler. It clearly states a runoff is a continuation of the original race. Only electors registered at time of original election can vote. So far I got a cheesy servo written not from Perdue, nothing from Loeffler.

That is correct. See #40.
