A federal judge has denied a request to reopen Georgia’s voter registration through Oct. 14, following destruction and delays wrought by Hurricane Helene. The Georgia NAACP, the Georgia Coalition for the People’s Agenda, and the New Georgia Project filed a complaint and motion for a temporary restraining order to extend the voter registration deadline beyond Oct. 7 due to “prolonged power outages, election office closures, internet outages, and postal service disruptions” brought on by the Category 4 storm, according to the NAACP.
