The Democratic candidate faced immediate calls to drop out, with many Democrats withdrawing their endorsements.
Democratic Rep. Eric Swalwell, who is currently running for California governor, is denying accusations made by a former staffer.
In a social media post, the representative said he was “deeply sorry for mistakes in judgment I’ve made in my past,” but promised to fight what he called “false allegations.”
Swalwell faced pressure from his own party to drop out of the race after a former staffer accused him of sexually assaulting her when she was too drunk to consent.
