Saikat Chakrabarti, the former tech engineer who ran a failed campaign to replace Rep. Nancy Pelosi in Congress, is throwing his efforts behind his former opponent, Supervisor Connie Chan.<\/p>\n

Chakrabarti filed papers on Monday to launch an independent expenditure campaign and is turning his campaign into a political action committee, called Solidarity PAC, to support Chan, who defeated Chakrabarti in the June primary and will face off against Sen. Scott Wiener in November\u2019s general election.<\/p>\n

While Chakrabarti and Chan differed on ways to accomplish change in Washington, he said that the two agree on \u201calmost everything\u201d when it comes to federal policy, like stopping the flow of weapons from the U.S. to Israel and increasing taxes on the rich.<\/p>\n
