Georgia Runoff Elects Pro-War Republican to Replace Marjorie Taylor Greene
In a conservative-leaning Georgia district, voters chose a pro-war Republican to fill the seat vacated by Marjorie Taylor Greene, signaling the limits of Democratic appeal in the region.
Georgia's 14th Congressional District, once represented by the controversial firebrand Marjorie Taylor Greene, has now elected a Republican candidate who supports the ongoing war in Iran. The race between Clay Fuller, who backs the military conflict, and Shawn Harris, who opposes it, was seen as a test of the Democratic party's ability to make inroads in conservative-leaning areas.
However, the final tally showed that voters in this largely rural, northwestern region of the state ultimately sided with the pro-war Republican candidate, signaling the limits of Democratic appeal in the district previously held by the controversial Marjorie Taylor Greene.
