A special congressional election is underway in metro Atlanta to fill the remainder of a term in the 13th congressional district. The district covers parts of several counties, including Rockdale, Clayton, and DeKalb. The election is to replace the late David Scott, who died in April after nearly five decades of public service.

Six candidates are on the ballot, including Scott's daughter and several other contenders. Further details about the election, including the candidates and the voting process, are available from local news sources. A runoff election has been scheduled for late August if needed.
