Pelosi won her first election to Congress in 1987 and has served as the party\u2019s House leader since 2002, quickly becoming the House\u2019s most prolific fundraiser and a well-recognized face throughout the nation. <\/p>\n<p>Replacing her would be no easy task, and Democrats have been quietly discussing for months who would be the best successor. Here are three key questions ahead of Pelosi\u2019s announcement on Thursday. <\/p>\n<p><b><a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/campaigns\/pelosi-daughter-third-in-political-dynasty-if-she-replaces-mom\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PELOSI 3.0: HOW NANCY\u2019S DAUGHTER WOULD BE THIRD IN POLITICAL DYNASTY IF SHE REPLACES MOTHER<\/a><\/b> <\/p>\n<div class=\"Enhancement\">\n<div class=\"Enhancement-item\">\n<figure class=\"Figure mb-1 mb-sm-3 mb-md-1 article-lead-photo data_invisible\" data-align=\"center\" data-image-size=\"fixed\" itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\">\n<div class=\"Figure-container\"><source media=\"(max-width: 768px)\" type=\"image\/webp\" data-image-size=\"1060x600_md\" \/><source media=\"(max-width: 768px)\" data-image-size=\"1060x600_md\" \/><source media=\"(max-width: 1440px)\" type=\"image\/webp\" data-image-size=\"1060x600_xl\" \/><source media=\"(max-width: 1440px)\" data-image-size=\"1060x600_xl\" \/><source type=\"image\/webp\" data-image-size=\"1060x600\" \/><source data-image-size=\"1060x600\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"image\" data-image-size=\"1060x600\" alt=\"Nancy Pelosi\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/90-91 1x, https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/90-92 2x\" width=\"1060\" height=\"707\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/90-91\" \/><figcaption class=\"Figure-caption\" itemprop=\"caption\">\n                Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi leaves the room after a ceremonial swearing-in on Capitol Hill in Washington, Monday, Nov.14, 2022.<br \/>\n               <\/figcaption><div class=\"Figure-credit\" itemprop=\"author\">\n                Jose Luis Magana\/AP\n               <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/figure><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><b>Will she stay or will she go?\u00a0<\/b> <\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not yet clear whether Pelosi plans to seek another term as the Democratic leader or if she\u2019ll step aside to allow someone else to take the helm. <\/p>\n<p>The details around Pelosi\u2019s announcement have been scant, with the speaker\u2019s spokesman merely stating on Tuesday that the California Democrat would \u201caddress her future plans tomorrow to her colleagues.\u201d Further details on when and where that announcement would be made are not yet clear. <\/p>\n<div class=\"Enhancement\">\n<div class=\"Enhancement-item\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SpeakerPelosi?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@SpeakerPelosi<\/a> has been overwhelmed by calls from colleagues, friends and supporters.

However, the race to succeed the House speaker may have already gotten underway earlier this summer. <\/p>\n<p>Clyburn and Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) reportedly met in the South Carolina Democrat\u2019s office during the summer congressional recess to discuss such plans, <a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/news\/2022\/11\/04\/secret-meeting-hakeem-jeffries-pelosi-00065078\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">according to<\/a> <i>Politico<\/i>. Jeffries had reportedly called the meeting after overhearing Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) might be interested in taking over Pelosi\u2019s position \u2014 the job Jeffries has been eyeing. <\/p>\n<p><a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/campaigns\/party-leaders-meet-to-discuss-pelosi-replacement\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Clyburn has suggested<\/a> he would step aside for Jeffries, paving the way for the New York Democrat to become the first black lawmaker to serve as a congressional leader. Clyburn\u2019s support would all but ensure Jeffries\u2019s path to succeeding Pelosi, setting the stage for a shake-up in Democratic House leadership. <\/p>\n<p><b>Who will take over Pelosi\u2019s California seat?\u00a0<\/b> <\/p>\n<p>Among the whispers about who would replace Pelosi as House speaker, other conversations remain about who would take her California House seat. <\/p>\n<p><b><a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER<\/a><\/b> <\/p>\n<p><a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/campaigns\/pelosi-daughter-third-in-political-dynasty-if-she-replaces-mom\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rumors have swirled<\/a> that Pelosi\u2019s daughter, Christine Pelosi, could launch a bid to take her mother\u2019s House seat, which would make her the third generation of a Pelosi political dynasty as Nancy Pelosi\u2019s father, Thomas D&#8217;Alesandro Jr., also served in Congress representing Maryland\u2019s 3rd Congressional District from 1939 to 1947. <\/p>\n<p>The deep-blue city has not had its congressional seat open since Pelosi won a special election in 1987. Before that, it was represented by Rep. Phillip Burton and then his wife Sala from 1975 until the speaker won the seat. The opening will be seen as a golden opportunity for a lifetime tenure for a liberal Democrat.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is set to make an announcement about her future plans on Thursday, just one day after Republicans clinched the<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1742582,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[547],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1742579","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-bongino-report"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1742579","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1742579"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1742579\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1742582"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1742579"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1742579"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1742579"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
