Lefty California Rep. Eric Swalwell is forcefully pushing back against a lawsuit claiming he can’t run for governor because he doesn’t actually live in the Golden State, calling the accusation “nonsense” and politically motivated.
In an exclusive statement to The Post, his campaign’s general consultant said Swalwell has always maintained a California residence.
Security concerns tied to repeated death threats against Swalwell explain why a campaign office address was listed on legal filings, according to campaign consultant Kate Maeder. She called the practice legal and common in California politics.
Right-wing filmmaker Joel Gilbert, who filed the suit, claims Swalwell actually lives in Washington, D.C., and therefore fails to meet California’s five-year residency requirement to run for governor.
**SNIP**
Swalwell’s team dismissed the case as a stunt, noting the claim comes from a MAGA blogger who has previously promoted fringe theories. They noted that the congressman holds a California driver’s license and pays California taxes.

Forget about his eligibility to be President. Is he qualified to be a representative from Commiefornia?
President = Governor
Effing auto-correct.
California politics is so corrupt no one in authority will insist on seeing it.
Gilbert is a great researcher and very careful about his claims.
I’m ready to list all the Dems who have honestly stated their true legal address. I have a postage stamp with the blank side ready to start writing.
SAME INFO SHOULD BE ON CALIF TAX RETURNS.
BETCHA HE IS USING HIS LAWYER’S ADDRESS.
IF SO-—PURE FRAUD.
KICK HIM OUT OF CONGRESS—_PROSECUTE HIM
Swalwell “identifies” as a Kalifornian, much the same way the 180 year old Chicago graveyard residents “identify” as able to vote.
And much the same way Pelousy and Newscum “identify” as being human.
He should have been gone long ago.
California democrats couldn’t possibly find a dumber guy to vote for so he’ll probably get elected.
What’s his home address? I think he needs to share that with the world. (We promise not to dox. 😉)
An effort to legally exclude him from running for political office in a state he does not reside in is “politically motivated”. Duh. Nothing gets by this dullard.
Maintaining a residence is NOT the same as living there.
At a bare minimum he perjured himself for signing an election document where “his” address was actually a non-residential campaign office.
What a strange response. Thank heavens for the Bill Clinton Parsing Lessons! Wouldn't the simplest, straight-forward, and definitive answer be "he owns a house or he leases an apartment, a condo?" Of course, they couldn't say that if it wasn't true. And they didn't.
