Why did Melvin E. Thompson feel he had the right to the position as governor after the 1946 election?

Because of his new position as lieutenant governor

Melvin Thompson fought Herman Talmadge on who should become the governor of Georgia after the then Governor elect died. This was in 1946, I'm Melvin's argument he thought he should be made the governor because he had been elected as the lieutenant governor of Georgia. Herman was made governor but this was only temporary. He was later removed and Melvin became the governor.
