Incumbent Rep. David Scott holds a slim trader consensus edge at 35% over state Rep. Jasmine Clark's 33.5% in the GA-13 Democratic primary on May 19, driven by a New York Times poll last week showing them nearly tied amid persistent voter concerns over Scott's age (81) and failure to vote in six recent elections. A fragmented seven-candidate field, with former Gwinnett school board chair Everton Blair Jr. at 18.5%, boosts runoff odds if no one exceeds 50%, as Georgia law advances the top two to a June 16 contest. Clark's momentum stems from her legislative record and fundraising parity, while Scott leans on incumbency and $1.18 billion in secured federal funding; separation could arise from Q1 FEC reports, major endorsements, or debates before early voting begins April 27.
