State law and holidays prevent a Saturday date for early voting in Georgia's Senate race
The Georgia Secretary of State's office recently said that the runoff for Senate will not include Saturday voting due to state holidays.

"The U.S. Senate race between incumbent Raphael Warnock and Republican challenger Herschel Walker went to a runoff after neither candidate managed to achieve 50% of the vote in the Nov. 8 general election. The day after the election, Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger formally announced the runoff and suggested that counties were likely to have Saturday voting. Due to legislation passed in 2016, that will not be possible. The Atlanta Journal Constitution first reported the lack of Saturday voting in the runoff. Early voting must begin no later than Nov. 28 and run through Dec. 2."
I think future Senator Walker should be thanking the Confederacy for possibly giving him an assist on winning the GA run-off....I am pretty sure the Dems were planning to use early voting on Saturday as the opportunity to steal the election, but they forgot about the Confederate holiday....which is crazy, because we all know that Democrats are Confederates and love Robert E. Lee...speaking of Herschel, it will be pretty exciting to hear him displaying his unmatched oratory talent on the Senate floor....
