The speaker emeritus has yet to reveal her election intentions for 2024, which could prompt a run by other Golden State Democrats hoping to represent San Francisco, one of the most liberal cities in the U.S. As it stands, Pelosi does not face a formal primary challenge from a member of her own party.
If Pelosi, 83, decides not to seek re-election until the last minute, or before the Dec. 8 filing deadline, would-be candidates will have an additional five days to file. For context, the official Democratic nomination process opens in mid-August.
Pelosi’s team has already raised $3.5 million in the first six months of this year for her potential re-election efforts, despite her continued silence about her future in capitol hill.
