Okay so, you know how sometimes it feels like everyone at City Hall is just, like, chilling?

That's rough, fam.

**Pelosi's Team Member Jumps Ship**

But the big news if you care about who's running the show in the Sunset, or anywhere really, dropped Monday. Nancy Pelosi's communications director, a heavy hitter for sure, is now joining Connie Chan’s campaign. Connie Chan, for those not constantly checking the District 1 supervisor race, represents the Richmond District, which, if you ask me, is basically the Outer Sunset's slightly more fog-bound cousin. This is a big deal because it signals some serious intent from Chan's campaign, pulling talent from one of the most powerful political figures in the country. It’s like when your favorite local band suddenly gets a producer who worked with U2, you know?

* **Who:** Pelosi's communications director

* **What:** Joined Connie Chan’s campaign

* **When:** Monday, July 27, 2026

* **Why it matters:** Shows Chan's campaign is serious about making waves.

This kind of shift in staffing can totally reshape a local race. We'll have to see if this move gives Chan a real edge as election season heats up.
