Racist Marjorie Taylor Greene Wins Georgia GOP Runoff

Marjorie Taylor Greene, who has faced condemnation from House Republican leaders for creating racist Facebook videos and embracing QAnon conspiracy theories, has won the runoff for Georgia’s 14th Congressional District.

Greene overwhelmingly defeated her opponent, John Cowan — amassing 60% of the vote in the heavily Republican district on Tuesday, The New York Times reported. She will face Democrat Kevin Van Ausdal in November.

Greene made headlines earlier this year for making Facebook videos in which she expressed racist, anti-Semitic and anti-Muslim views.

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) lambasted Greene’s videos as “appalling.’” Rep. Jody Hice (R-Ga.) said in June that he could “no longer support her candidacy” in light of Greene’s “deeply troubling” comments.

Greene has also come under scrutiny for her support for QAnon, the far-right conspiracy movement.
