Open seat -- the current officeholder is a Republican, Earl "Buddy" Carter, who is not running (running for U.S. Senate).
Why we think this
- This district's baseline partisan lean favors Republicans by about 7 points of margin before anything else is considered.
- This is an open seat: the current officeholder (a Republican, Earl "Buddy" Carter) is not on the ballot, which tends to make the race more competitive than a defended seat.
