Last chance to register: What's on the line in Georgia's 2026 midterms

Georgia voters have one last full week to register for the state’s 2026 midterms, a set of high-stakes contests drawing national attention. The races will help shape the future of the state often seen as the country’s premier battleground. Key elements include the fight for U.S. Senate control, where Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff seeks reelection against Republican Rep. Mike Collins, in a state Trump won in 2024. Georgia will also elect a new governor because term-limited Gov. Brian Kemp faces no successor in office. The article outlines registration rules—must register at least 29 days before Election Day—and options to register online, by mail, or in person, plus eligibility requirements and ways to preview a sample ballot.
