In California, Democrats have officially nominated Nancy Pelosi to run for a 19th term in the U.S. House, reaffirming her status as one of the party’s most influential figures. Though no longer Speaker, Pelosi remains a powerful fundraiser and strategist, and her decision to run signals steady leadership amid a divided Congress.
Supporters see her as a seasoned stateswoman and a link to past legislative victories, while critics point to the need for generational change. Either way, her continued presence ensures Pelosi will remain a defining voice in American politics.
