Georgia Special Election Live Results: Replacing Marjorie Taylor Greene
Voters in northwest Georgia return to the polls Tuesday for a congressional runoff. The race will decide who finishes the term left vacant by Marjorie Taylor Greene.
Primary results and runoff setup
In the March 10 all-party special election, Democrat Shawn Harris led with about 37% of the vote. Republican Clay Fuller finished second with roughly 35% in a field of 17 candidates.
Republican candidates together won close to 60% of the ballots. The district spans 10 counties from suburban Atlanta to the Tennessee line.
Why this race matters
The 14th District is rated the most Republican-leaning in Georgia by the Cook Political Report. The winner will serve out the remaining months of Greene’s term.
A Republican victory would slightly strengthen the GOP majority in the U.S. House. Currently Republicans hold 217 seats, Democrats 214, and there is one independent.
Longer-term calendar
The special election winner must also consider the regular 2026 cycle. Republican candidates for a full two-year term face a May 19 primary.
That primary could trigger a June 16 runoff, and then a November general election. Harris is the only Democrat on the ballot, so he has no primary opponent.
Candidates and campaign themes
Clay Fuller is a former district attorney who prosecuted cases in four counties. He served as a White House fellow during the first Trump administration and holds a lieutenant colonel rank in the Georgia Air National Guard.
Fuller has embraced former President Donald Trump. Trump endorsed him in February and reiterated support publicly this week.
Shawn Harris is a cattle farmer and retired general. He previously lost to Greene in 2024 and presents himself as a pragmatic, rural Democrat.
Harris contrasts his style with Greene’s confrontational approach. He has argued that Fuller’s close alignment with Trump limits independent judgment.
Background on Marjorie Taylor Greene’s departure
Greene resigned in January after a public split with Trump. She had been a vocal Trump ally following the 2020 election.
In 2024 she campaigned alongside Trump at rallies. The relationship soured after disputes over her plans to seek statewide office and her criticism of Trump on some issues.
Following Trump’s declaration he would back a primary challenger, Greene announced her resignation about a week later.
