Marjorie Taylor Greene will win a House seat in Georgia, CNN projects.

Greene, who has promoted QAnon theories, ran unopposed for the vacant and solid Republican seat. Democrat Kevin Van Ausdal dropped out of the race after winning the party’s primary.

After her primary win, Greene walked back her support and said the QAnon candidate label “doesn’t represent me.”

The seat for Georgia's 14th congressional district is currently held by Republican Rep. Tom Graves, who has served in the House since 2010 and announced last year that he would not seek reelection in 2020.
