**MTG Out: Georgia Runoff Decides Her Successor**
Republican Clay Fuller has won a special runoff election in Georgia. He will replace the controversial Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene. Fuller defeated his Democratic opponent, Shawn Harris, in Tuesday's vote. The election was required after Greene voluntarily resigned from her U.S. House seat last month. Greene, a prominent and polarizing figure, left Congress to focus on other goals. Her district, Georgia's 14th, is heavily Republican. This made Fuller the strong favorite to win the seat. The result does not change the balance of power in the closely divided House of Representatives. Fuller is expected to be sworn in and begin his term shortly.
