US EditionVoters in Georgia Have Moved on From Marjorie Taylor Greene. On Tuesday, They Finally Fill Her Seat
Trump-backed Clayton Fuller and Democrat Shawn Harris are vying for a House seat that could affect Republicans’ 217-214 majority, officials said.
- On Tuesday, April 7, voters in Georgia's 14th Congressional District head to the polls for a special runoff election featuring Trump-endorsed Republican Clay Fuller and Democrat Shawn Harris to replace former Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene.
- Greene resigned from Congress in January following a public rift with President Donald Trump, narrowing the Republican majority in the U.S. House to 217-214. Her departure triggered this special election.
- Fuller has campaigned as a "warrior for President Trump" on Capitol Hill, while Harris raised $6.4 million compared to Fuller's about $1.3 million. Harris emphasizes opposition to the conflict.
- The runoff serves as a referendum on Trump's popularity while impacting the fragile balance of power in the U.S. House, where Republicans hold a 217-214 majority. A Fuller victory would provide breathing room for the party.
- Both candidates are already seeking their party's nominations for a full term in the May 19 primary. The winner will serve the remainder of Greene's term, which ends in January before the November midterm elections.
