President Donald Trump celebrated what he called a perfect record for his endorsed candidates following Tuesday’s Republican elections in Mississippi and Georgia.
“March 10th election update: 5 wins, 0 losses,” an election-night graphic posted to Truth Social declared. “President Trump endorsements 100%.”
The post highlighted four victories in Mississippi—Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith and Reps. Mike Ezell, Michael Guest, and Trent Kelly—as well as a strong showing in Georgia.
One of the night’s most closely watched contests was an all-party special election to fill the House seat vacated by former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene in Georgia’s solidly Republican 14th Congressional District.
Republican Clay Fuller advanced to an April 7 runoff against Democrat Shawn Harris.
“Clay Fuller is going to be a fantastic Congressman in representing the Great State of Georgia,” Trump wrote Wednesday morning on Truth Social. “Now we have to be careful and finish it off. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!”
Although Fuller did not win the special election outright, he secured a spot in the runoff after finishing second in a crowded 17-candidate field. Harris led the race with 37.3% of the vote, while Fuller followed with 34.9%, trailing by roughly 3,000 votes.
Republican Colton Moore finished third with 11.6%, while no other candidate reached 5%.
“I think the Republican Party is going to unite around us because they know that the Democrat is too dangerous,” Fuller said Tuesday night. “We can’t have a Democrat representing Georgia 14. That would be a tragedy for our community, a tragedy for Georgia 14 and a tragedy for the MAGA movement.”
More than 115,000 votes were cast in the race. Combined Republican candidates captured 59.7% of the vote, compared with 39.8% for Democrats, while independents received less than 1%.
“Congratulations to Clay Fuller, of Georgia’s 14th Congressional District, on getting such a high percentage of the vote with 12 Republicans running,” Trump wrote Tuesday night on Truth Social. “We want to make the next vote ‘TOO BIG TO RIG.’ Clay will be a GREAT Congressman — HE WILL NEVER LET YOU DOWN!”
Fuller, a lieutenant colonel in the Georgia Air National Guard and a White House fellow during Trump’s first administration, previously ran in the 2020 Republican primary won by Greene, finishing fourth.
He credited Trump’s endorsement with helping propel his campaign into the runoff.
“They want to know who President Trump was endorsing in this race,” Fuller said. “And that’s why they came out in droves to support him, because they want an America First fighter on Capitol Hill fighting for his policies that are going to make a difference for our community.”
