乔治亚州第13国会选区将于周二举行特殊选举，以填补已故民主党众议院议员大卫·斯科特的空缺席位1。斯科特于4月去世，享年80岁1。本次选举汇聚了四名民主党候选人和两名共和党候选人，其中包括前郡县学校委员会主席埃弗顿·布莱尔、已故议员之女马西·斯科特，以及民主党人托尼·布朗和卡洛斯·穆尔、共和党人凯撒·冈萨雷斯和费思·帕克1。由于该地区高度倾向民主党，本次选举结果可能影响目前由共和党微弱控制的众议院权力平衡1。
在选票问题上，如果任何候选人获得多数票，将直接赢得席位1。否则获票最多的前两名候选人将参加8月25日的特殊决选1。截至7月21日，该选区约有584000名注册选民1。投票将于美东时间下午7点截止1。2024年众议院选举中约358000票被投出，其中约78%通过提前投票或邮寄进行1。截至上周五，已投出约8700张提前选票1。
Georgia's 13th Congressional District will conduct a special election on Tuesday to fill the House seat left vacant by the death of Democratic Representative David Scott1. Scott, who was 80 years old, passed away in April1. The heavily Democratic district's election outcome could influence the balance of power in the House, where Republicans hold a narrow majority1.
Six candidates are competing in the race: four Democrats—former county school board chair Everton Blair, Marcy Scott (the late congressman's daughter), Tony Brown, and Carlos Moor—along with Republicans Caesar Gonzales and Faith Parker1. A candidate who secures an outright majority of votes will win the seat immediately; otherwise, the top two finishers will advance to a special runoff scheduled for August 251. Voting concludes at 7 p.m. Eastern Time1.
As of July 21, approximately 584,000 voters were registered in the district1. The 2024 House election drew roughly 358,000 votes from the area, with about 78 percent cast through early voting or mail ballots1. Early voting in this special election had generated approximately 8,700 ballots cast as of last Friday1.
