SACRAMENTO — Rep. Eric Swalwell, a leading Democratic candidate for California governor, on Tuesday denounced online claims that he had inappropriate relationships with young congressional staff members.
“It’s false,” he told reporters after an evening town hall at the Scottish Rite Masonic Center in Sacramento.
When asked, Swalwell said he never behaved inappropriately with female staff members or had a sexual relationship with a staff member or an intern.
