Pete Buttigieg endorses lone Democrat as Trump doubles down in Georgia
USA TODAY
Former Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg announced his endorsement of Shawn Harris in the race to replace Marjorie Taylor Greene in Georgia.
Rome, Ga. — The race is heating up in Northwest Georgia as more than a dozen candidates try to take the reins from Marjorie Taylor Greene.
The former congresswoman resigned her position in January following a loud and public falling out with President Trump. The two have continued to spar, with the president nicknaming her Marjorie "Traitor" Greene.
The president visited Rome, Georgia on Thursday to tout his economic agenda and double-down his endorsement of Republican District Attorney Clay Fuller to replace Greene in the special election that began early voting on Monday.
Fuller has to gain enough support from the Republican base — who have a lot of candidates to choose from — to fight off Democrat Shawn Harris, now an experienced candidate after his race against Greene in 2024.
"There's no such thing as a permanently red state or district, and I believe Shawn Harris has the background and values to bring together and win," the former secretary said in a statement Feb. 20.
