Trump-endorsed Clayton Fuller won the closely-watched election in an important hold for the GOP. Republicans currently maintain a razor-thin four seat majority and three seats are currently vacant. Fuller will fill Taylor’s vacant seat.

The margin of victory is much closer than some may have anticipated, as Trump won the district by nearly 40 points in 2024.
