Nancy Pelosi, who has come under increasing pressure from fellow Democrats here to retire, will make an announcement about her plans after Californias election on a redistricting measure early next month, Politico reports.
And if Pelosi, who is 85, does leave office, she has been publicly elevating one Democrat who could run to succeed her: San Francisco Supervisor Connie Chan who has emerged as a progressive force inside City Hall and who, much like Pelosi, is closely aligned with the citys powerful labor movement.

(5,178 posts)I did it to give another the chance to succeed in a career I loved. Its best to go out ahead, which I did, and I dont regret it. It gave me valuable time with my husband before he passed and the realization of how much teaching was eating up my sanity and health.
