Georgia Democrat Eric Gisler Wins State House Seat in Trump-Supporting District
Democrat Eric Gisler has won a special election to fill a state House seat in Georgia's 121st District, a region that previously supported President Trump by a significant margin. This victory marks a notable shift in a historically Republican area. The seat was vacated by Republican Marcus Wiedower, who resigned in October. Gisler, who owns a local olive oil store, defeated Republican Mack 'Dutch' Guest. This win is part of a broader trend of Democratic successes in special elections across the state, including recent victories in statewide Public Service Commission races.
