Republican Clay Fuller wins special election for Marjorie Taylor Greene’s old seat in Congress

NBC News projects Fuller won after Republicans consolidated about 60% of the first-round vote and Trump backed him in the district.

  • On Tuesday, Republican Clay Fuller won the special election runoff for Georgia's 14th Congressional District, securing 54 percent of the vote and filling the seat vacated by former Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene.
  • Greene resigned from her House seat in January following a public falling out with President Donald Trump over his handling of files related to the Jeffrey Epstein investigation.
  • Endorsed by the president, Fuller, a former district attorney and Air National Guard officer, campaigned on a 'MAGA America first' agenda against Democrat Shawn Harris.
  • Fuller defeated Harris decisively, securing 54 percent of the vote to Harris's 44 percent, with results called shortly after 8 p.m. on Tuesday.
  • The victory strengthens the Republican majority in the narrowly divided House, providing another ally as candidates ramp up campaigns ahead of the 2026 midterms.
