A special election in Georgia's 14th congressional district to replace Marjorie Taylor Greene is heading to a runoff. Republican Clay Fuller, endorsed by Donald Trump, will face Democrat Shawn Harris on April 7th. Neither candidate secured a majority of votes in the initial election, which included a crowded field of 17 candidates. The winner will serve the remainder of Greene's term, ending in January, and will then need to campaign for a full term in the upcoming midterm elections. While Harris received the most votes in the initial election, the Republican vote was split, and Fuller may benefit from party consolidation in the runoff. The election is seen as an early test of Trump's influence in the upcoming midterms.
