Pelosi's Seat: Personal War or Policy Fight | US News

The battle to replace Nancy Pelosi in San Francisco is turning personal, with Supervisor Connie Chan—backed by Pelosi herself—and State Senator Scott Wiener, the outsider challenger, locked in a bitter feud.

The race has become about legacy, influence, and who deserves to represent the district—not just policy.
