Georgia law does not permit anyone to register to vote, and then be eligible to vote, for a run-off, after the deadline for registering in the first election. Only voters who were already registered for the first election may vote in a run-off, even though the two events are approximately two months apart in time. The Georgia NAACP challenged this law in a lawsuit filed April 20. On April 24, U.S. District Court Judge Timothy Batten expedited the case, which is Georgia State Conference of the NAACP v Kemp, n.d., 1:17cv-1397.

The state must respond to the lawsuit by April 28, Friday, at noon. Oral argument will be Thursday, May 4, at 2 pm.

U.S. District Judge William Zloch will hold oral arguments in Wilding v Democratic National Committee Services, s.d. Florida, 0:16cv-61511, on Tuesday, April 25, at 1:30 p.m. in Fort Lauderdale. This is the case filed on June 28, 2016, by some supporters of Bernie Sanders. They complain that the Democratic national committee broke its own neutrality rules during the 2016 contest for the Democratic presidential nomination. The party is trying to persuade the judge that the plaintiffs lack standing.
