      End your campaign, but he can stay in Congress, at least for now.

          Who are the other three people in the video?

          Hmm. Direct click doesn't work, but if you copy the URL, it'll take you there.

            You're unfit to be the governor but fit to be a Congressman? Explain how that works, predator.

              Two low bars but I would agree the congressman bar is lower historically speaking.

              I wonder if he’s being primaried for the congressional seat. Probably since many assumed he might vacate it.

                I've read that he's an inconvenient candidate because of California's "jungle primary," in which two republicans are leading in the polls. Eliminating him reduces the number of Democrats running for office, giving Mrs. Potato Head a better shot.

                I don't know if he's running for a congressional seat. Somewhere, I read that he has to NOT run for congress if he runs for governor.

                  Hopefully it gives the San Jose mayor a better chance

                    The deadline to apply for a run for a Congressional seat was March 6. Swalwell didn't apply.

                    And, community notes to the rescue.

                          Swalwell is still on the ballot in California. His "suspending" his campaign doesn't change that.

                          He also has not, as of yet, submitted a letter of resignation, tho it might change in the coming days. He could, if he wanted, fester linger a while.

                          I wonder what other rotten apples will fall. Maybe some of the 150 or so congressmen who voted against full disclosure of sexual abuse settlements?
