Hey Lawrence.

Hey, Jen. We have Ali Velci who's got the results from Georgia and we're going to go straight to him. Great. I'll look forward to watching. And Ali, what do we have? Yeah, let's talk. We've got pretty much all the vote in in Georgia District 14. This is Marjorie Taylor Green's district that she stepped out of. out of. So this is the race to replace her for the duration of this year. There will be a normal primary

0:24.8

for this district in May. But right now, with 99% of the vote in, the biggest vote getter

0:30.4

right now is the Democratic candidate, the former Brigadier General, retired Brigadier General

0:34.6

Sean Harris, who ran against Marjorie Taylor Green last time.

0:38.4

He's outperforming his own performance against her, but this is Georgia. Like most southern

0:42.7

states, you have to get 50% or more to win. So Sean Harris advances with Clayton Fuller to the runoff,

0:48.9

which will be on April the 7th. Here's the interesting thing. Clayton Fuller was endorsed by

0:53.1

Donald Trump, but Colton Moore, who is the third place candidate today, is not inventing the run-up. He's sort of

He's at 37 and a half almost,

1:12.6

but there are two other Democratic candidates in this race. So when you add their totals up there at

1:16.8

about a percent each, that takes him almost to 40 percent. So now he's at 40 percent versus the

1:21.5

collection of Republicans at 60 percent. So again, this is an improvement over what Democrats

1:26.6

have done in this very, very Republican county.

1:29.7

I just want to show you where this is in Georgia. It's the top left corner, the most northwestern

1:34.3

part of Georgia. It's also the most Republican part of Georgia. It's mostly rural. It's got Rome in it.

1:40.6

It does have a bit of the Atlanta suburb. It's got a little bit of Cobb County over here. These are

1:45.6

all, as you know, fairly blue districts, but it's got a little bit of Cobb County in here where

Sean Harris has done very well. This was where he won last time as well. So all in all, it is an
