玛乔丽·泰勒·格林在国会的席位终于将有人接任。
三个月前，格林在与唐纳德·特朗普总统爆发极为激烈的争执后突然离开华盛顿。周二，佐治亚州西北部的选民将再次投票，通过决选选举她的继任者。
共和党人克莱·富勒是前地区检察官，民主党人肖恩·哈里斯是退役军官，两人在3月10日的多人参与的特别选举中脱颖而出，成为得票最高的两位候选人。过去一个月来，二人展开了正面交锋，结果将于周二揭晓。
共和党人只想顺利完成该席位的补缺选举，他们希望富勒获胜能为共和党在众议院微弱的多数席位带来些许喘息空间。
民主党人清楚，在这个保守派堡垒中参选面临重重困难，但他们急切想看看哈里斯的得票差距是否能体现出选民热情，这或将为参议员乔恩·奥索夫的连任竞选，以及今年秋季开放的佐治亚州州长席位选举带来积极信号。
目前尚无定论的是，全美民众对特朗普政府伊朗政策的强烈不满是否会波及本次决选，但两党战略家表示，随着军事行动持续进入第二个月、经济后果日益凸显，此次选举可作为早期风向标，检验选民如何看待这场战争。
两位候选人均为退伍军人，但在伊朗问题上立场截然不同，这场冲突在他们竞选期间持续发酵。
哈里斯称其为“主动发起的战争”。富勒则为美国的军事行动辩护，称：“特朗普总统在伊朗问题上的所作所为，让我们的国家更安全了。”
周二选举的获胜者将完成格林剩余的任期，任期将于明年1月结束。两人均已表明打算在11月竞选完整任期，相关竞选活动将从5月19日各自的党内初选开始。

特朗普与格林之间的激烈私人恩怨——从亲密盟友转为批评者——在今年年初主导了选民的讨论话题，但随着时间推移逐渐淡出了人们的视线。
尽管格林仍在持续猛烈批评特朗普，尤其是尖锐质疑他的伊朗政策，但特朗普在给她贴上“玛乔丽·叛徒·格林”的标签后，几乎从未公开提及过她。
“该选区不会选举民主党人”
格林的辞职引发了佐治亚州第14国会选区一连串令人眼花缭乱的竞选和选举活动。该选区涵盖10个县，从亚特兰大郊区一直延伸至田纳西州边境沿线的阿巴拉契亚山麓地带。
她离开国会也进一步缩小了众议院议长迈克·约翰逊本就微弱的多数席位优势，这也是特朗普介入3月特别选举、希望避免决选，并支持富勒而非其他寻求他背书的候选人的原因之一。
总统的背书帮助富勒在拥挤的共和党候选人阵营中脱颖而出，但哈里斯仍以微弱优势领先，获得了约37%的选票。如果共和党人团结起来支持富勒，预计他将在周二轻松获胜。
3月10日选举结果
格林本人并未参与这场接替她的竞选，但她告诉CNN，她打算投票给富勒。
“该选区不会选举民主党人，”格林说道，她曾在2024年与哈里斯竞选，最终以64%的得票率压倒性获胜。
对哈里斯而言，这一得票率凸显了他在特朗普2024年以37个百分点优势获胜的选区中面临的巨大挑战。尽管如此，他仍在努力动员民主党人、激励独立选民，并拉拢失望的共和党人加入他的竞选——即便他们是秘密支持他。

“投票不是去教堂，”哈里斯在今年早些时候的一次采访中说道，“你不需要忏悔，你只需要进去做对你、对你的家人和孙辈最有利的事。”
在上个月的特别选举中获得最多票数后，哈里斯表示，选举结果表明民主党人可以在这个共和党占绝对优势的选区中具备竞争力。
“没错，这里是深红选区，”哈里斯说，“它不会变成蓝营，但肯定会变成粉营。”
而富勒则一直以“国会山为特朗普而战的战士”为口号开展竞选。他称特朗普是“我们这个时代最伟大的外交政策总统”。他还辩称，如果民主党人赢得国会控制权，他在华盛顿的存在将对共和党有所帮助。

“如果我们失去众议院的多数席位，我们将在国会山面临对特朗普总统的持续弹劾，你需要一名检察官站出来保护特朗普总统，”富勒在今年早些时候的一次论坛上对选民说道，“这就是我作为民选地区检察官整个职业生涯一直在做的事。你需要在国会山有人懂得如何应对法律程序、如何辩论案件。”
在上月末亚特兰大新闻俱乐部的辩论中，富勒一再表达对特朗普的支持，这促使哈里斯宣称：“他已经把自己的灵魂卖给了唐纳德·特朗普。”
关于特朗普当下与未来地位的全民公投
周二的决选只是最新一场针对特朗普的全民公投——佐治亚州长期以来都是衡量其受欢迎程度和执政表现的重要风向标。
他在2016年赢得该州，2020年失利，这也让该州成为他毫无根据的大规模选举欺诈指控的中心。2024年，他再次赢得该州。
佐治亚州对今年秋季中期选举的结果至关重要，该州拥有全美最受关注的参议院竞选之一、竞争激烈的州长席位选举，以及颇具竞争性的州议会选举。
尽管特朗普和共和党面临诸多挑战，但维持其获胜联盟的团结将是争夺国会控制权斗争的核心，选民将就此对他第二任期前半段的行动作出评判。
周二的特别选举可能会为共和党或民主党带来一定程度的希望，富勒与哈里斯之间的竞选差距将受到与选举结果同样密切的关注。
Voters in Georgia have moved on from Marjorie Taylor Greene. On Tuesday, they finally fill her seat

Finally, Marjorie Taylor Greene’s seat will be filled in Congress.
Three months after Greene abruptly left Washington in the midst of a remarkably bitter feud with President Donald Trump, voters in northwest Georgia on Tuesday are poised to cast their ballots — again — in a runoff election to replace her.
Republican Clay Fuller, a former district attorney, and Democrat Shawn Harris, a retired Army officer, emerged as the top two contenders from a crowded special election March 10. They have been locked in a head-to-head battle for the last month that will be resolved Tuesday.
Republicans are focused on simply finishing the job in the deep-red district, hoping a Fuller victory offers a bit of breathing room for the party’s narrow House majority.
Democrats are mindful of the uphill climb in the conservative bastion, but eager to see whether Harris’ margin shows a level of enthusiasm that could offer signs of strength for Sen. Jon Ossoff’s reelection bid and in the open Georgia governor’s seat this fall.
It’s an open question whether deep national skepticism over the Trump administration’s Iran policy will seep into the runoff, but party strategists say the contest could serve as an early test of how voters perceive the war as military action continues well into a second month, with economic consequences rising.
The candidates, both of whom are veterans, have taken starkly different positions on Iran, a conflict that has unfolded during the duration of their campaign.
Harris calls it “a war of choice.” Fuller has defended US military action, saying: “Our country is safer because of what President Trump has done regarding Iran.”
The winner of Tuesday’s election will serve the remainder of Greene’s term, which ends in January. Both men have already signaled their intentions to run for a full term in November in new campaigns that begin with their respective primary elections on May 19.

The deeply personal feud between Trump and Greene — a fierce ally turned critic — dominated the conversation among voters at the beginning of the year but receded to the background as the months have worn along.
While Greene has kept up her relentless criticism of Trump, particularly by sharply questioning his Iran policy, the president has barely mentioned her publicly after branding her as “Marjorie Traitor Greene.”
‘This district will not elect a Democrat’
Greene’s resignation touched off a dizzying series of back-to-back campaigns and elections in Georgia’s 14th Congressional District, which covers 10 counties stretching from the Atlanta suburbs to the Appalachian foothills along the Tennessee state line.
Her departure from Congress also narrowed House Speaker Mike Johnson’s already slim majority, which is among the reasons that Trump injected himself into the March special election in hopes of avoiding a runoff and backed Fuller over other candidates who also sought his support.
The president’s endorsement helped Fuller surge to the front of a crowded Republican field, but Harris still narrowly outpaced him by winning about 37% of the vote. If Republicans consolidate their support around Fuller, he is expected to handily win Tuesday.
March 10 results
For her part, Greene has stayed on the sidelines of the contest to replace her but told CNN that she intended to vote for Fuller.
“This district will not elect a Democrat,” said Greene, who ran against Harris in 2024 and decidedly won with 64% of the vote.
For Harris, that margin underscores the monumental challenge he faces in a district Trump won by 37 percentage points in 2024. Still, he has sought to energize Democrats, motivate independents and identify disillusioned Republicans to join his campaign — even if they come secretly.

“Voting is not church,” Harris said in an interview earlier this year. “You don’t have to confess. You just have to go in there and do what’s best for you, your family and your grandkids.”
After winning the most votes in the special election last month, Harris said the results showed a Democrat could compete in the heavily Republican district.
“Yes, it’s ruby red,” Harris said. “It won’t turn blue, but it’ll definitely turn pink.”
For his part, Fuller has campaigned relentlessly as “a warrior for President Trump on Capitol Hill.” He has called Trump “the greatest foreign policy president in our time.” He also has made the case that his presence in Washington could be helpful to Republicans if Democrats win control of Congress.

“If we lose the majority in the House, we are going to be facing constant impeachments on the Hill of President Trump and you need a prosecutor to stand up there and protect President Trump,” Fuller told voters at a forum earlier this year. “That’s what I’ve been my entire career as an elected district attorney. You need people on Capitol Hill who know how to fight a legal process an argue a case.”
At an Atlanta Press Club debate late last month, Fuller expressed his support for Trump again and again, which prompted Harris to declare: “He has sold his soul to Donald Trump.”
A referendum on Trump’s present and future standing
The runoff election on Tuesday is only the latest referendum on Trump in a state that has long stood as a leading barometer for his popularity and performance.
He won the state in 2016. He lost it in 2020, which placed it at the center of unfounded claims of widespread election fraud. He won it again in 2024.
Georgia is among the states that are the most critical to the outcome of the fall’s midterm elections, with one of the most closely watched Senate races in the nation, a wide-open contest for governor and competitive state legislative races.
For all of the challenges facing Trump and Republicans, the ability to keep his winning coalition together will be at the center of the fight for control of Congress as voters give their verdict on the actions of the first half of his second term.
The special election on Tuesday could deliver a measure of hope for Republicans — or for Democrats — with the margin of the Fuller-Harris race watched nearly as closely as the result.
