华盛顿——佐治亚州第14国会选区的选民将于周二投票，决定由共和党人克莱·富勒还是民主党人肖恩·哈里斯接替前共和党众议员玛乔丽·泰勒·格林。格林于三个月前辞去国会职务，此前她与特朗普总统爆发激烈争执，指责特朗普在民生负担和外交事务等问题上背弃了其“让美国再次伟大”的支持者基础。
此次选举结果将对众议院的权力平衡产生影响：共和党（以及一位与共和党团结合作的无党派议员）目前占据218个席位，民主党占据214个席位。
哈里斯在3月10日的特别选举中表现略好于富勒，但由于参选候选人众多，两人都未获得多数选票，因此不得不进行决选。
哈里斯比获得特朗普背书的富勒得票更多，这一结果被归因于此次选举中共和党候选人数量众多，并不意味着民主党能在这个格林始终以大幅优势胜出的保守选区爆冷获胜。
格林于2020年首次当选国会议员，以近50个百分点的优势击败民主党对手。她在随后的两次连任选举中均以约30个百分点的优势获胜。
周二的选举结果很可能被视为首批考验选民如何看待特朗普处理伊朗战争及其经济影响的选举之一。
富勒是地区检察官、空军国民警卫队退伍军人，他支持特朗普对伊朗开战的决定，称伊朗政权是“无法通过谈判解决的死亡邪教”。
“由于特朗普总统在伊朗问题上的所作所为，我们的国家更安全了，”他在上个月与哈里斯的辩论中说道。
在辩论中，身为农民和退休陆军将军的哈里斯将这场战争称为“选择的战争”，并表示特朗普的关注点应该放在“我们如何让经济重回正轨”上。
尚未在此次选举中背书任何候选人的格林指责特朗普带领美国卷入又一场外国冲突，背叛了其“美国优先”的承诺。周日，她在X平台上发文称，在特朗普威胁如果伊朗政权不重新开放霍尔木兹海峡就轰炸其发电厂和桥梁后，总统“已经疯了”。
“这不是让美国再次伟大，这是邪恶的，”她说道。
随着与特朗普的裂痕日益扩大，格林于今年1月离开国会。此前她与共和党领导层决裂，要求公开与被定罪的性犯罪者杰弗里·爱泼斯坦相关的文件，特朗普因此称她为“叛徒”和“疯子”。格林还批评特朗普在美国人背负高生活成本和不断上涨的医疗保健费用之际，将注意力放在外国冲突上。
在特朗普表示将支持一名初选挑战者挑战她的一周后，格林宣布了辞职决定。
富勒和哈里斯可能会在今年晚些时候的11月大选中再次对决，这场选举将决定谁能在2027年1月至2029年1月期间担任该席位议员。在此之前，他们需要通过5月19日的中期初选。

Georgia runoff to decide who replaces Marjorie Taylor Greene after her spat with Trump
April 7, 2026 / 6:00 AM EDT / CBS News
Washington— Voters in Georgia’s 14th Congressional District will decide Tuesday whether Republican Clay Fuller or Democrat Shawn Harris will replace former GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene. She resigned from Congress three months ago after a bitter falling out with President Trump, whom she has accused of forsaking his MAGA base on issues like affordability and foreign affairs.
The result will have an effect on the balance of power in the House, where Republicans (and one independent who caucuses with the party) hold 218 seats and Democrats have 214.
Harris performed slightly better than Fuller in a special election on March 10, but neither secured a majority of the vote in a crowded field of candidates, forcing a runoff election.
Harris’ ability to attract more votes than Fuller, who had Mr. Trump’s endorsement, was attributed to the number of GOP candidates in the race and is not viewed as an indication that Democrats could pull off a major upset in the conservative district that Greene has consistently won by wide margins.
Greene was first elected to Congress in 2020, winning by nearly 50 points against her Democratic opponent. She won her two subsequent reelection campaigns by about 30 points.
Tuesday’s margin is likely to be viewed as one of the first tests of how voters view Mr. Trump’s handling of the Iran war and the economic ramifications.
Fuller, a district attorney and Air National Guard veteran, has supported Mr. Trump’s decision to go to war with Iran, describing the Iranian regime as “a death cult that could not be negotiated with.”
“Our country is safer because of what President Trump has done regarding Iran,” he said in a debate against Harris last month.
At the debate, Harris, a farmer and retired Army general, called it a “war of choice” and said Mr. Trump’s focus should be on “how do we get this economy back together.”
Greene, who has not endorsed a candidate in the race, has accused Mr. Trump of betraying his “America First” promises by leading the U.S. into another foreign conflict. On Sunday, she said in a post on X that the president “has gone insane” after he threatened to bomb Iran’s power plants and bridges if the regime did not reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
“This is not making America great again, this is evil,” she said.
Greene left Congress in January as the rift between her and Mr. Trump grew wider. The president labeled her a “traitor” and a “lunatic” for breaking with Republican leaders to demand the release of files related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. She also criticized Mr. Trump’s focus on foreign conflicts while Americans are saddled with the high cost of living and rising health care costs.
Greene announced her departure a week after Mr. Trump said he would back a primary challenger against her.
Fuller and Harris could face off again later this year in the general election in November, which will determine who holds the seat from January 2027 through January 2029. Before then, they’ll have to get through the May 19 midterm primaries.
