Pelosi has weighed in on potential heirs to her Congressional seat — giving a nod to a left-wing Asian pol. Pelosi lavished praise on Connie Chan, a member of the Board of Supervisors representing west side neighborhoods.
“She’d be a great member of Congress,” Pelosi said, per the San Francisco Standard. Pelosi said it’d be “very exciting” to send an Asian American to Congress. (San Francisco is roughly one-third Asian American.)
Polls show Chan — a union favorite endorsed by Sen. Adam Schiff, SEIU California and the San Francisco Labor Council-— trailing badly.
Connie Chan is Chinese, born in Hong Kong and raised in Taiwan, and currently serves as a San Francisco Supervisor, w/ a background as a community organizer and legislative aide.
