The special election on July 28, 2026, to fill the vacancy in Georgia’s 13th Congressional District—created by the April 2026 death of longtime Democratic incumbent David Scott—features a crowded all-party field with no majority likely, triggering a potential August 25 runoff under state rules. Multiple Democratic contenders, including Marcye Scott (daughter of the late representative), Carlos Moore, Tony Brown, and Everton Blair, compete alongside Republican Caesar Gonzales in a solidly Democratic district where the eventual nominee is expected to prevail in November. Trader consensus remains closely balanced around 30–45% implied probabilities for the leading Democratic names because limited recent polling, modest campaign visibility, and vote-splitting dynamics among local officeholders and party activists have produced no dominant frontrunner. Developments that could separate the field include major endorsements from state or national Democratic figures, early fundraising disclosures showing resource advantages, candidate forums that clarify policy differences on issues such as economic development and healthcare access, or the emergence of consolidated support behind one or two candidates ahead of the July ballot.
