The election to pick former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s replacement is headed to a runoff next month after the Donald Trump-backed candidate failed to secure the majority of support in the crowded race.
Republican Clay Fuller, a district attorney, will face Democrat Shawn Harris, a cattle farmer and retired brigadier general, to fill the vacant seat in Georgia’s 14th congressional district, the Associated Press and other outlets reported.
It’s a district President Donald Trump won by 37 points in 2024, indicating that even if Republicans did not have such a crowded primary field, Democrats were still able to dramatically close the gap in the district just outside Atlanta.
