"Swalwell responded, 'No, no, it's false. And also some of the allegations I've seen, which is that we've had NDAs in the office, and never, there's never been an allegation and there's never been a settlement.'"
"'I will also just take stock that we're 27 days before an election starts,' Swalwell said, indicating the timing of the allegations."
"'His campaign had previously denied the claims, saying Swalwell was being targeted because he is a frontrunner in the race for governor.'"
"'In recent public polls, he has been in a statistical tie with fellow candidates Tom Steyer and Katie Porter.'"
Eric Swalwell publicly denied allegations of inappropriate behavior with female staffers during a town hall event in Sacramento. He stated that the claims are false and emphasized that there have been no non-disclosure agreements or settlements related to such allegations. Swalwell believes he is being targeted due to his frontrunner status in the gubernatorial race.
