They've been trying for years. It seems the issue is infrastructure around Candlestick. It is a tough enough sell to get a new stadium, let alone the cost of new highways and interchanges to bring them up to spec.

There have been rumours of a few other locations, but land cleanup was huge.

I think the only way this doesn't happen now is if the Santa Clara voters vote it down. The SF would have a chance to get back in the game.
