Jasmine Clark holds a commanding lead in the Democratic primary for Georgia’s 13th Congressional District, an open seat following the recent death of longtime incumbent David Scott, because of her record as a state representative, her fundraising advantage, and endorsements from science-focused and progressive groups. Recent internal polling among likely Democratic primary voters shows Clark ahead by double digits just days before the May 19 vote, reflecting strong name recognition in the metro Atlanta district and a background as a microbiologist and Emory professor that aligns with voter priorities on public health and education. The crowded field, including Everton Blair Jr. and Emanuel Jones, has not generated comparable momentum or resources. Trader consensus at these levels accounts for the short timeline to election day, while still recognizing that unusually low turnout or late shifts in endorsements could narrow the margin in this heavily Democratic district.
