Harris's 14-point defeat represented a dramatic narrowing from Greene's nearly 29-point win over Harris the previous year.

Fuller told Fox News Digital it was extremely crucial to send a MAGA fighter to Capitol Hill.

The runoff served as an early test of Trump’s influence and the war in Iran as a campaign issue.

The war in Iran was a central issue throughout the race.

Fuller was a stalwart supporter of Trump’s military actions.

Harris held foreign policy views closer to isolationist Greene.

The contrasting positions highlighted fissures within the MAGA coalition.

The runoff only decided who will fill the remainder of Greene's term through the end of the year.

Fuller must run again for a full two-year term starting with primaries on May 19.

A likely Fuller-Harris rematch looms come November.

The narrow margin suggested the Iran war and rising gas prices could continue to influence voter behavior.
