A special election is underway to replace Marjorie Taylor Greene in Georgia’s 14th Congressional District, with more than a dozen candidates on one ballot. The report highlights Republican contenders Clay Fuller and Colton Moore and explains that the race could go to an April 7 runoff.
Georgia’s 14th District has been without representation since Marjorie Taylor Greene resigned after a public split with President Trump. More than a dozen candidates qualified for the special election; if no candidate wins more than 50% of the vote, the top two advance to an April 7 runoff. The report says a runoff is likely because of the size of the field.
President Trump endorsed district attorney Clay Fuller, while former state senator Colton Moore is another Republican front-runner. Moore said he was “100% pro-Trump” and had called out fraud in the 2020 election; the report notes there has been no evidence of mass voter fraud in Georgia or elsewhere. It also says some candidates, including Fuller and Jim Tully, have said they want to focus more on the district and less on media attention.
