Swalwell ends bid for CA gov. Is Congress expulsion next?

Rep. Eric Swalwell said Sunday he would withdraw from the California governor’s race in the wake of allegations of sexual misconduct that led to a nearly immediate campaign collapse, as staffers quit and prominent Democratic supporters urged him to drop out.

Swalwell was long considered a top contender in a wide-open field with several prominent Democrats and two Republicans ahead of the state’s June 2 nonpartisan primary. But on Friday, his campaign was roiled when CNN and the San Francisco Chronicle published reports in which women accused Swalwell of sexual misconduct.

CNN’s John Berman speaks with NOTUS congressional reporter Daniella Diaz and CNN senior legal analyst Elie Honig and CNN’s Audie Cornish leads a panel discussion on Democratic reaction to Swalwell’s scandal.
