"You'd think they all came from Nancy Pelosi's district," said Henry Stern, the former city Parks commissioner who now runs the Web site New York Civic.

Looking at the most recent election where Nancy Pelosi’s constituents and Manhattan voters had the same choices, I think it’s far to say that in a political sense, the DA candidates (plus Henry & me) do come from her district.
