NEW: Eric Swalwell will soon face s*xual harassment accusations from his former staffers, according to lawyer and activist @CheyenneHuntCA.
Hunt says she is working with multiple women to expose his “pattern of manipulation.”
One woman says Swalwell makes all his interns, whom he has slept with, sign NDAs so they don’t say anything.
“The number of credible women who have come forward since I posted my video is pretty shocking and connecting them with the investigative reporting teams who have been working on breaking this for years has greatly expedited this process,” Hunt said on X.
Swalwell is currently running for governor of California.

I got involved because the first victim who approached me is a close friend, but when I saw that there were others who’s experiences fit the same pattern of manipulation and abuse of power, I knew I couldn’t stay silent.

Rep. Eric Swalwell denied claims by a former staff member that he had sexually assaulted her, once when she was working for his office and years later when she was no longer an employee. “These anonymous election eve claims are categorically false,” his campaign said. (Credit: Rich Pedroncelli/AP)
A video where you are sitting in what appears to be a hotel room with an unbuttoned shiny silk unbuttoned shirt and 1/2 fly collar to deny rape accusations of a girl who basically described THIS EXACT SAME SCENE was probably not a good idea https://t.co/MWqgSqWhdr

I am suspending my campaign for Governor.
To my family, staff, friends, and supporters, I am deeply sorry for mistakes in judgment I’ve made in my past.
I will fight the serious, false allegations that have been made — but that’s my fight, not a campaign’s.
