Democrat Shawn Harris and Republican Clay Fuller will compete in a Georgia runoff election on April 7th to fill Marjorie Taylor Greene's seat in Congress. The special election in Georgia's 14th congressional district is seen as a test of Donald Trump's influence, as Fuller has his endorsement. While Fuller raised over $1 million, Harris, who previously ran against Greene, has raised over four times as much. The winner will complete Greene's term through the end of the year and can seek re-election. The race presents a potential opportunity for Democrats in the traditionally Republican district.
