The vacancy created by the April 2026 death of longtime Democratic incumbent David Scott has produced a crowded special election field for Georgia’s 13th Congressional District, with the July 28 general election and possible August 25 runoff still weeks away. Multiple Democratic candidates, including Everton Blair, Marcye Scott, Tony Brown, Carlos Moore, and Fayth Park, plus Republican entrants such as Caesar Gonzales, qualified in mid-May and are now competing for the same heavily Democratic electorate. No candidate has yet consolidated broad support or benefited from major endorsements or polling leads, leaving implied probabilities tightly clustered near the top of the market. The absence of a primary and the short campaign window further fragment voter attention across the contenders, sustaining the competitive balance until clearer signals emerge from early fundraising, local events, or voter surveys.
