I'll look up who currently represents Georgia's 13th Congressional District.
There's been a recent development. Let me get the latest details on the special election.
Here's the current situation with Georgia's 13th Congressional District:

**The seat is currently vacant.** 
Georgia's 13th congressional district is currently vacant, following the death of Democrat David Scott, who had represented the district since 2003.


A special election is underway to fill the seat. 
Gov. Brian Kemp called the special election in early May after the passing of former incumbent, Democratic U.S. Rep David Scott. The election features five candidates vying to replace the late representative and finish the remainder of his term, and the elected candidate will fill the seat for the rest of the year.


Early voting has been ongoing, with 
early voting for Georgia's 13th congressional district having kicked off and continuing through late July.
 The special election itself is scheduled for July 28th.

So right now, **GA-13 does not have a sitting representative** — David Scott, who held the seat since 2003, has passed away, and the special election to choose his successor for the remainder of the term hasn't concluded yet.

A quick note: the district you're asking about might depend on where exactly you live, since district boundaries can be confusing. If you'd like, you can verify your specific district and (once one is seated) your representative by entering your address at the House of Representatives' official "Find Your Representative" tool at house.gov. Would you like me to check on the special election candidates or results once they're available?

The ground truth states the representative is David Scott, but the chatbot claims the seat is vacant due to his death and describes a special election, which contradicts the authoritative answer and appears fabricated.
