With 68% of the vote reported, Fuller, a district attorney and former lieutenant colonel in the Air National Guard, leads Democrat Shawn Harris, a retired Army officer, by double digits (56.1% to 43.9%). DecisionDesk called the race at 8:03 p.m. ET.

The conservative win expands House Republican majority to 219–214, with the midterm elections just eight months away.

President Donald Trump’s early endorsement helped Fuller consolidate the Republican vote in a crowded field of eleven other conservative candidates. On Monday night, Trump urged Republicans to get out and vote.

Located in the northwestern corner of Georgia, bordering Alabama and Tennessee, the district strongly favors Republicans. President Trump carried the district in 2024 with 68% of the vote, according to the Associated Press, outperforming Marjorie Taylor Greene’s 64%.

Greene resigned from Congress in January after a bruising falling-out with the president, who pulled his endorsement from one of his formerly most loyal supporters.

“I am withdrawing my support and Endorsement of ‘Congresswoman’ Marjorie Taylor Greene, of the Great State of Georgia,” Trump said in a November 14 Truth Social post, adding that “all [he sees] ‘Wacky’ Marjorie do is COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN!”

Greene grew critical of the president over a range of issues, including the Epstein files, whether to extend Obamacare subsidies, and, more recently, the war with Iran.

On Easter Sunday, the former MAGA firebrand accused Trump administration officials of being “complicit” and said the president himself  has “gone insane.”

“Everyone in his administration that claims to be a Christian needs to fall on their knees and beg forgiveness from God and stop worshipping the President and intervene in Trump’s madness,” she wrote on X.

President Trump, who branded the former congresswoman as “Marjorie Traitor Greene,” has not acknowledged her in recent weeks.

Fuller ran on mass deportations, cracking down on crime, protecting the Second Amendment, and prioritizing an “American First Economy” — promising to stand against the “Socialists, Democrats and weak Republicans in Washington.”

The platform was enough to sway former Congresswoman Greene, who signaled support for the Republican candidate, telling CNN, “This district will not elect a Democrat.”

Fibis I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
