Trump ally Clay Fuller advances in Georgia fight for MTG’s former seat

Summary

Republican House candidate Clay Fuller will face Democrat Shawn Harris in a runoff election for a congressional district in northwest Georgia. Fuller, who has been endorsed by President Trump, says his playbook is simple: to continue getting the message out about Trump’s support and his own experience as a military officer and district attorney. The runoff election is being held after a special election in which Fuller came in second, with Harris winning 37% of the vote. The congressional seat was left vacant when Marjorie Taylor Greene stepped down in January. The GOP cannot afford to lose the seat, which Trump carried by 37 points in his 2024 presidential victory.


Our Reading

As expected, the matter has reached another stage.

Fuller and Harris will face off in the runoff election, with Fuller relying on Trump’s endorsement and his own experience to win over voters. Harris, a retired brigadier general and cattle farmer, will face a steep climb in the runoff election. Fuller plans to reach out to other Republican candidates, including former state Sen. Colton Moore, to consolidate support. The GOP is expected to rally around Trump’s choice, and Fuller is confident that a Democrat cannot represent the district. The runoff election will take place on April 7.

It’s Christmas every time Trump is in the district.
