Jasmine Clark holds a commanding lead in the Democratic primary for Georgia’s 13th Congressional District, set for May 19, 2026, following the April death of longtime incumbent David Scott that opened the heavily Democratic seat. Her position stems from established name recognition as a state representative, substantial early campaign spending including major PAC support, and a recent internal poll showing her ahead of the field by 45 points among likely primary voters. The remaining candidates trail significantly in fundraising and endorsements, limiting their ability to consolidate support before election day. While the primary remains open until votes are cast, a late surge by any challenger would require rapid shifts in turnout or voter preferences that current data does not indicate.
