Harris and Fuller advance to runoff in Georgia special election to fill MTG’s House seat

.

Republican Clay Fuller and Democrat Shawn Harris will advance to a runoff in Georgia’s special election to replace former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene after neither candidate secured a majority of votes in Tuesday’s crowded contest. 

The special election in Georgia’s 14th Congressional District featured a field of 17 candidates from multiple parties competing on a single ballot. Under Georgia law, if no candidate receives more than 50% of the vote, the top two finishers advance to a runoff election, slated for April 7. 

Fuller, a former district attorney backed by President Donald Trump, finished among the top-vote getters, setting up a runoff against Harris, a retired Army brigadier general and Democratic nominee who previously challenged Greene in the 2024 election.
