Pelosi, 85, hasn’t indicated whether will she run again. If she does seek another term, her age could be a factor at a time when younger Democrats are eager to see a new wave of leaders. Pelosi was among several top politicians who persuaded then-President Biden to forgo a second term after widespread concerns about his age.
Ian Krager, spokesperson for Pelosi, declined to comment on her plans. He released a statement Friday reaffirming Pelosi's support for Proposition 50, which will be on the ballot in California's Nov. 4 special election.
The measure would redraw California’s congressional districts in favor of Democrats and was pushed by Gov. Gavin Newsom and California Democratic leaders after Trump urged Texas to reconfigure the state’s districts to elect five more Republicans to Congress, part of an effort to keep the GOP in control of the U.S. House of Representatives.
