State Sen. Scott Wiener, a vocal Trump critic and housing-density advocate, will run next year for the congressional seat held by Rep. Nancy Pelosi, with a formal announcement expected next week, the San Francisco Standard reported. Wiener has raised $1 million via an exploratory committee and changed course after progressive Saikat Chakrabarti entered the race. Pelosi, 85, hasn’t said if she’ll run again and is focused on Proposition 50, on California’s Nov. 4 special election ballot to redraw districts in favor of Democrats. If elected, Wiener would be San Francisco’s first openly gay member of Congress.
