Georgia Voters Decide Who Fills Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Vacant House Seat Voters in Georgia’s 14th Congressional District are heading to the polls Tuesday to choose a new representative in a special election runoff [122236]. The vote will determine who completes the term of former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, who vacated the seat after moving to run in a neighboring district [122236][98324]. The runoff pits Republican Clay Fuller against Democrat Shawn Harris, after no candidate secured a majority in the initial election [122236]. The winner will represent the heavily conservative district until January, though the outcome is not expected to alter the Republican majority in the U.S. House of Representatives [122236]. This election has highlighted a sharp divide within the Republican Party over foreign policy, particularly regarding the risk of a wider conflict with Iran [121882]. The two Republican candidates who initially competed in the primary held opposing views on America's role in the Middle East, with one advocating for a more aggressive stance and the other cautioning against direct U.S. military involvement [121882]. Polls are open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. local time on Tuesday, June 18 [122236]. The winner of Tuesday's runoff will be the strong favorite to win the general election for the full term this November [121882]. Georgia to Vote: Who Fills Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Seat?
