An India-origin political activist, Saikat Chakrabarti will contest against House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi for her San Francisco seat in the US Congress. The 30-year-old tech entrepreneur entered politics after 8 years of experience in the tech industry. 

Previously, he managed the election campaign for House Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and worked with Vermont Senator Benrie Sanders, as per an NDTV report. 

Chakrabarti announced his candidature on Wednesday for the 2026 midterm elections on X, saying after watching Donald Trump and Elon Musk “freely unleash chaos in their illegal seizure of government”, it was clear to him that the Democratic Party needed new leadership. 

“I respect what Nancy Pelosi has accomplished in her career, but we are living in a totally different America than the one she knew when she entered politics 45 years ago,” he said.

Pelosi has not announced her reelection bid yet but filed a statement of candidacy with the Federal Election Commission last November.
