Swalwell suspends campaign amid allegations

The rapid collapse of Eric Swalwell's gubernatorial bid has injected fresh uncertainty into the race to succeed Governor Gavin Newsom.

Multiple women have come forward with allegations of misconduct, leading to a wave of rescinded endorsements from prominent Democratic organizations and colleagues.

While Swalwell continues to deny all charges, he faces mounting pressure from within his own party to resign his seat in Congress.

The House Ethics panel is specifically scrutinizing whether the congressman engaged in sexual misconduct toward employees under his direct supervision.
