Swalwell exits California governor’s race amid scandal, reshaping Democratic field Eric Swalwell has withdrawn from the California governor’s race and announced his resignation from Congress following serious allegations of sexual assault and misconduct involving multiple women. The allegations, which include claims from former staff members and accusations of inappropriate behavior such as sending explicit images, triggered immediate political fallout and prompted calls for his expulsion and a criminal investigation. Swalwell has denied the accusations and said he will fight to clear his name, but his departure has rapidly reshaped the state’s competitive gubernatorial contest. His exit has left a significant vacuum in the Democratic primary, especially among major donors and political organizations that had previously supported or aligned with him. Many of these backers are now shifting their attention toward remaining candidates, with former Rep. Katie Porter and billionaire Tom Steyer emerging as the most immediate beneficiaries. Both had been competitive with Swalwell in polling and are now expected to absorb a portion of his supporters and fundraising network. However, uncertainty persists within the Democratic field. Other candidates, including Xavier Becerra, Antonio Villaraigosa, and San José Mayor Matt Mahan, may gain renewed attention as the race becomes more fluid. The scramble has intensified concerns within the California Democratic Party about a fragmented primary that could weaken its standing in the general election. The situation has also triggered rapid repositioning among unions, elected officials, and major donors, many of whom have suspended or withdrawn support for Swalwell’s campaign. Some have begun reassessing endorsements and fundraising strategies as primary ballots approach. The shake-up highlights broader instability in the race, with Democrats now navigating a crowded field and heightened uncertainty about who will emerge as the party’s strongest nominee.
