A special election to fill the U.S. House of Representatives seat vacated by Marjorie Taylor Greene will be held on March 10.
Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger issued a call for a special election for the District 14 seat on Tuesday, one day after Greene resigned from her seat.
The winner will fill Greene’s unexpired term through the end of the year, but the seat is up for reelection for a full two-year term in the November midterms.
In a press release, Raffensperger outlined the details:

Greene resigned after clashing with President Donald Trump over the release of the Epstein Files. Once a MAGA firebrand and one of Trump’s most ardent supporters, Greene grew increasingly vocal about her displeasure with the administration’s policies.
On Monday, she posted a statement on social media opposing the operation in Venezuela to apprehend President Nicolas Maduro after Trump suggested the U.S. would be running the South American country.
“Americans disgust with our own government’s never ending military aggression and support of foreign wars is justified because we are forced to pay for it and both parties, Republicans and Democrats, always keep the Washington military machine funded and going. This is what many in MAGA thought they voted to end. Boy were we wrong.”
