CONYERS, Ga. — U.S. Rep. David Scott faces multiple Democratic primary opponents in his quest for a 12th congressional term in a sharply reconfigured suburban Atlanta district. “We don’t know a lot about David Scott, besides him having had this district before,” said Beverly Dotson of Conyers. “Thank God I’m in good health, moving and doing the people’s work,” Scott said. Flowers said he’s now running against Scott because he believes Scott’s reliance on contributions from corporations and political action committees means he isn’t oriented to the district’s needs. “He’s been asleep behind the wheel for a long time, and he supported Republicans who now have taken our rights away,” Baker said of Scott.
