Who Will Replace Nancy Pelosi? CNN

The Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi, has stepped down from her position as the leader of the Democratic Party in the lower chamber of the U.S. Congress, but has not indicated whom she will support for the position, according to CNN.

Currently, the most likely successor to the political figure is Congressman Hakeem Jeffries from New York. Various representatives of the Democratic Party have stated their readiness to support the election of a Black political figure to replace Pelosi.

In particular, the House Democratic Majority Leader Steny Hoyer has already endorsed Jeffries' candidacy. “It’s very clear to me that Hakeem Jeffries is the person I will vote for, and the Congressional Black Caucus will vote for,” said Ohio Representative Joyce Beatty to CNN.

Earlier, it was reported that in her farewell speech in Congress, Pelosi did not mention former U.S. President Donald Trump.
