- Rep. David Scott, a pro-Israel Democrat from Georgia, died at age 80.
- He was serving his 12th term and was the first black chairman of the Agriculture Committee.
- Scott opposed the 2015 Iran nuclear deal and supported military aid to Israel.
- Georgia Governor Brian Kemp will call a special election; Scott's name remains on the May 19 primary ballot.
- Several candidates are vying for the Democratic nomination in a safe Democratic district.
