Marjorie Taylor Greene resigned from Congress earlier this year (effective Jan. 5, 2026), vacating Georgia’s 14th Congressional District seat after a public fallout with President Trump over Epstein files, Israel support, and Iran strikes.
Special Election Details
- Date: Tuesday (March 10, 2026)—an open (non-partisan primary) contest; >12 Republicans and a few Democrats competing.
- Majority (50%+) wins outright; otherwise, runoff on April 7.
- Winner serves remainder of term ending Jan. 3, 2027; safe Republican district (Greene won by 29% in 2024).
Key Factors
- Trump endorsed Clay Fuller (district attorney, Air National Guard officer), testing endorsement clout amid Greene’s Trump feud.
- House GOP majority narrows to 218-214 (3 vacancies): Greene’s, Rep. Doug LaMalfa (R-CA, died Jan. 6), Rep. Mikie Sherrill (D-NJ, resigned Nov. 20).
Pundits eye results for Trump’s influence in this conservative northwest Georgia seat; high turnout expected in midterms year.
