Rep. Eric Swalwell's abrupt exit from the California governor's race — triggered by sexual misconduct allegations from four women — has thrown the June 2 top-two primary into chaos, with Democrats scrambling to consolidate behind Tom Steyer or Katie Porter while two Republican candidates see a narrow but real path to locking Democrats out of the November general election entirely. Swalwell's simultaneous resignation from Congress also leaves California's 14th Congressional District without representation and facing a costly special election.
