Republican Clayton Fuller has defeated Democrat Shawn Harris to win the special election runoff in Georgia’s 14th Congressional District — replacing former GOP Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (MTG).
Fuller, who was endorsed by President Donald Trump, won Tuesday’s special election for the U.S. House seat, leading Harris 57.5% to 42.5% with 86% of the vote counted, according to the Associated Press.
The race comes after the March 10th election, where no candidate reached the 50% threshold needed to secure an outright victory. Harris and Fuller, the two-leading vote-getters, then advanced to a runoff.
The seat was vacated by Greene after she announced in November that she would step down on January 5, 2026 — the day before the start of the 119th Congress. Her departure came amid a turbulent political period, closing an era that included moments of tension and controversy, but also, prior die-hard loyalty to President Trump.
After Greene began publicly complaining about the Trump administration and shifting leftward politically, as described by conservative pundits, Trump decisively withdrew his support, calling her a “traitor” while underscoring his commitment to backing candidates who fully align with his vision for the Republican Party.
Meanwhile, this election comes amid Republicans clinging on to a thin 218-214 majority in the U.S. House of Representatives.
In the 2024 presidential election, Trump carried the district by a whopping 37 points.
