  • Republican Clay Fuller has secured Marjorie Taylor Greene’s former U.S. House seat in Georgia, backed by Donald Trump’s endorsement.
  • Fuller defeated Democrat Shawn Harris, who had led the initial 17-candidate field in March.
  • His victory strengthens the Republican Party's slim majority in the House of Representatives.
  • Fuller, a former district attorney, will serve the remainder of Greene's term, who resigned in January after a disagreement with Donald Trump.
  • He will need to seek re-election later this year to secure a full two-year term in Congress.
