California Rep. Eric Swalwell isn’t qualified to run for governor of the Golden State — because he doesn’t officially live there, according to a bombshell new court claim.
Right-wing pundit and filmmaker Joel Gilbert said in a court complaint filed in Sacramento that Swalwell, considered the likely successor to
Democrat Gov. Gavin Newsom, actually lives in Washington, DC, and is prohibited from running for the top state office under California law.

“Public records searches reveal no current ownership or leasehold interest held by Eric Swalwell in California, nor any history of any ownership of leasehold interest based on available public records,” said
the petition filed by Gilbert on Jan. 8.
“Swalwell’s congressional financial disclosers from 2011 to 2024 list no California real estate ownership.”
Gilbert said in the filing that the California address Swalwell claimed in a campaign filing Dec. 4 is actually the office of the congressman’s lawyer and not a residence.
Commentary:
Of course Democrats are geniuses at falsifying documents. We'll soon we will be informed of a home he supposedly has owned for decades.
It’s lying on government documents, something Hunter got charged a felony for. I think in all states it is a crime to lie to the government.
Rules don’t apply to anyone with a D after their name, and we know that mortgage fraud is almost becoming the norm with Dems.
The question come to mind as to how does this get to the point of a lawsuit? Why wouldn’t Swalwell's team provide proof of residency? How is he representing a CA district when he doesn’t reside in the district? If that’s not a requirement, it should be. Why are all Democratic Party candidates as fake as $3 bills?
