Democrat Scott Wiener is poised to win the California seat to succeed Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), according to The Hill. The outlet reported that his opponent, San Francisco Supervisor Connie Chan, conceded in a statement Wednesday evening. The Hill, citing local Fox affiliate KTVU, said the concession came through that statement.
Decision Desk HQ (DDHQ), which The Hill described as its partner, had not called the race at the time of the report. The Hill said Wiener leads Chan, but the available text breaks off before giving the size of his lead, so the margin is not reported in the material available.
The Hill's headline says Wiener "prevails," while the summary of the same report says he is "poised to win." The summary also states that the race has not been called. The story was written by Miranda Nazzaro.
The Hill's headline describes Pelosi as retiring. The available report does not include vote totals or any statement from Wiener.
