Greene resigned in January after a falling out with Trump.

Republican Clay Fuller, a former district attorney, got the endorsement of Trump, who came to the district and rallied for him last month.

Fuller says the endorsement made a difference in helping him get the most votes among the Republicans on the ballot.

Fuller advances to an April 7 runoff against Democrat Sean Harris, who lost a green in 2024 by a 64% to 36% margin.

There will be a separate May primary and November general election to fill the congressional seat after January 2027 that features many of the same candidates including Fuller and Harris.
