The special election date to fill the unexpired term of Georgia Republican Rep. Nathan Deal has been moved from April 27 to May 11. If no candidate receives a majority of the vote, a runoff will be held on June 8. Georgia elections division spokesman Matt Carrothers said the move was made to ensure military and overseas voters would be able to cast their ballots in time. The qualifying period for the seat will still be held next week, March 29 through 31.
