Are you saying that only voters who voted in the general election are eligible to vote in the runoff?

Thanks, Wally_Kalbacken! That statute appears to mean that only voters who were already registered to vote in the original election can vote in the runoff election. Is that correct?
And thanks to Blueflag! Is October 5 the deadline for the original vote?
