RINGGOLD, Ga. (AP) — Republican Clay Fuller has won Marjorie Taylor Greene’s former U.S. House seat in Georgia. Fuller’s special election win Tuesday bolsters a slim GOP majority. President Donald Trump in February endorsed Fuller, a former district attorney, propelling him to the front of a large field. Fuller beat Democrat Shawn Harris, who led the first round of voting in March but couldn’t overcome the northwest Georgia district’s strongly Republican tilt. Fuller will have to run again later this year to secure a full two-year term. Greene, once among Trump’s most ardent supporters, resigned in January after a falling out with the president.
