Georgia Voters Elect Republican in Hotly Contested Special Election
In a closely watched race, a Republican candidate has won a special election to replace controversial congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene in Georgia's 14th district.
In a closely watched race that drew national attention, Republican Clay Fuller has won a special election to replace controversial Georgia congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene in the state's 14th district. Fuller's victory is seen as a win for former President Donald Trump, who campaigned for the Republican candidate in the district earlier this year.
The special election was called after Greene resigned from her seat in Congress in January, just weeks into her second term. Greene, a staunch supporter of Trump, had become known for her incendiary rhetoric and embrace of conspiracy theories like QAnon. Her departure from Congress created an opening in the solidly Republican district, setting the stage for a heated campaign between Fuller and his Democratic opponent.
