The announcement comes despite the fact that there is intense debate in America about the aging of the political class: President Biden is 80 years old, his opponent Donald Trump is 77.
Democratic former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, 83, announced today that she is running for re-election in her California seat.
“Our country must show the world that our flag always shines,” he said on Platform X.
For this reason I am a candidate for my re-election”.
The announcement comes despite the fact that there is intense debate in America about the aging of the political class: President Biden is 80 years old, his opponent Donald Trump is 77.
The first woman to hold the presidency of the lower house of Congress, Nancy Pelosi refused last November the position of the head of the Democrats in the House of Representatives, announcing that she wanted to “leave room for the new generation”.
She is now an ordinary California congresswoman, but she retains a lot of influence on Capitol Hill, which she has traversed since 1987.
Long the third most powerful person in the US state after the president and vice president, Pelosi was first elected to the position of “Speaker”, the speaker of the House of Representatives in 2007. She is known for her role as the first to oppose Trump , whom he fiercely fought when he was in the White House.
In late October, her husband Paul was attacked in the middle of the night at their California home by a hammer-wielding gunman. The attacker was looking for Pelosi who he accused of lying and whose knees he intended to “break”.
