EXCERPT:
Democrat Rep. and former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (CA-11) has held her congressional seat in California for 39 years. Once Pelosi announced in November 2025 that she planned to retire from the House of Representatives, several people scrambled to run for the District 11 seat. As the votes in California are still being counted, three Democrats are vying for the Top 2 spots that will move to the November general election: the Pelosi-endorsed San Francisco Supervisor Connie Chan, State Sen. Scott Wiener, and former chief of staff for Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY-14), Saikat Chakrabarti.
