Chelsea Clinton Eyeing Run For Congress
Chelsea Clinton Speculation Grows After Nadler’s Exit
With Rep. Jerry Nadler stepping down after 30 years in Congress,
speculation has emerged about who will run for his seat in New York’s 12th District
— including Chelsea Clinton. Despite rumors, Clinton has consistently denied political ambitions, stating, “I am not running for office.”
Nadler’s Legacy and Departure
Nadler, one of Congress’s most senior Democrats, played a central role during Trump’s first impeachment.
Announcing his retirement, he said, “It is the right time to pass the torch to a new generation.”
A Power Struggle Begins
His departure opens a rare, powerful seat, intensifying competition among local Democrats.
Nadler hasn’t endorsed a successor, but emphasized the need for change, saying,
“A younger successor can maybe do better, can maybe help us more.”
Clinton Name Still Resonates
Mention of Chelsea Clinton shows the lasting influence of the Clinton brand, though she previously said, “Right now, the answer’s no.”
