AINews Summary
Last updatedJul 14, 2026
Heavenly Kimes is in the news because she is one of several Democrats running in Georgia’s 13th Congressional District after Rep. David Scott’s death opened the seat. The race is now split between a May 19 primary for the next full term and a separate July 28 special election to fill the rest of the current term. The contest is crowded and may go to a runoff, so the nomination is still unsettled.
