Georgia voters to pick replacement for Marjorie Taylor Greene in special election

Her name isn't on the ballot. She no longer serves in Congress. But Marjorie Taylor Greene is looming large in the minds of north-west Georgia voters as they prepare to choose who to replace her with in Washington.

Known for her hard-line Christian conservative views, brash committee appearances, and embrace of multiple conspiracy theories, Greene quickly became one of the most prominent Republican members of Congress after winning her seat in 2020.

"She did some stuff off the wall," said Justin Leonard, 28-year-old firefighter in Georgia's 14th congressional district, who voted for Greene twice. "Kind of making conservatives look a little right-wing and a little like nut jobs. But other than that, I think she did her job."

But when Greene broke her unwavering support for US President Donald Trump late last year, the pair's rift descended into a very public feud that ultimately led to her decision to quit Congress in January.
