Everton Blair Wins Georgia’s 13th District | Atlanta News

Everton Blair has won the Georgia 13th District special election runoff, defeating Marcye Scott and securing a seat that tightens the GOP’s already razor-thin House majority. Blair, former Gwinnett County School Board chair, will serve out the remainder of late Rep. David Scott’s term until January 2027 — though neither he nor Scott are running for the full two-year term starting then. With over 52% of the runoff vote, Blair now heads to Washington, while voters in the Atlanta-east district prepare for another election in 70 days to choose the next representative.
