Pelosi runs for 20th term insulated from concerns over age
Former Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) announced on Friday that she would run for a 20th term in the House largely unencumbered by the scrutiny over age that has vexed her octogenarian colleagues.
At 83, Pelosi is older than Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), who is dealing in very public terms with the lingering effects of a fall he suffered earlier this year. The age of President Joe Biden is at the center of conservative mockery, and quiet Democratic concern, as he vies for a second term he would begin at 82.
