A runoff election is set for April 7 in Georgia’s 14th Congressional District to determine who will replace former U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene in Congress.

Democrat Shawn Harris and Republican Clay Fuller advanced to the runoff in Tuesday’s special election.

Harris received 37.3% of the vote with 43,241 votes, while Fuller received 34.87% with 40,388 votes.

Fuller was endorsed by President Donald Trump and describes himself as an “America First Patriot.” He served as district attorney for the Lookout Mountain Judicial Circuit, a four-county circuit in northwest Georgia. According to his campaign website, Fuller has argued cases before the Georgia Supreme Court and the Georgia Court of Appeals. He was raised in the North Georgia mountains.

Harris, who grew up on a Georgia farm, served 40 years in the military and retired as a brigadier general in the U.S. Army. He is a grass-fed cattle rancher and previously ran for the seat in 2024, losing to Greene after receiving 35% of the vote.

Late Tuesday, Harris said the election results show a shift in the region’s political climate.

“Donald Trump does not control Northwest Georgia anymore,” he said in a video published on his social media.

According to CBS News, Harris raised the most money in the race, bringing in $4.3 million, while Fuller reported the second-highest fundraising total at $787,000.
