00:02The race to replace former congressman Marjorie Taylor Greene in Georgia is heading to a runoff.
00:08After a crowded special election in Georgia's 14th district, former district attorney Clay
00:13Fuller and retired Army Brigadier General Sean Harris are advancing to the final round.
00:19Neither candidate cleared the 50 percent threshold needed to win outright,
00:23setting up a head-to-head runoff on April 7th. For Republicans, the race was a test
00:28of President Trump's influence. Clay Fuller resigned his post as district attorney to run
00:33and quickly emerged as the frontrunner after Trump endorsed him in February.
00:38Georgia Governor Brian Kemp also backed Fuller, urging Republicans to rally behind him in the runoff.
00:44Democrat Sean Harris is also moving on. The retired Army general and cattle rancher
00:49has raised more than $4 million for his campaign. Harris lost to Greene in 2024,
00:54but says Tuesday's results show a Democrat can still compete in what he calls a ruby-red district.
01:01The seat opened in January after Greene's very public break with Trump over foreign policy
01:07and the release of the Epstein files. Whoever wins the runoff will serve the remainder of Greene's term,
01:13which runs through January of next year.
01:17We'll be right back to the next year.
