Former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown admits to relationship with Kamala Harris, boosting her career

Previously, Harris dodged questions about how he helped Brown with her political career.

"Yes, we dated," Brown wrote. "It was more than 20 years ago. Yes, I may have influenced her career by appointing her to two state commissions when I was Assembly speaker.

"And I certainly helped with her first race for district attorney in San Francisco," he added.
