In the face of a lawsuit and growing verbal attacks on the campaign trail, Rep. Eric Swalwell — the Democratic frontrunner in the California governor’s race — insists he’s kept a home in the state for nearly nine years while serving in Congress.
But that would be news to Swalwell’s neighbors.
Five people who live on the quiet Livermore cul-de-sac where Swalwell claims to have lived since 2017 told The California Post on Wednesday that they have never met the congressman.
“I’ve never seen him,” said Gita Prusty, who noted she’s lived on Michell Court for five years.
Prusty’s home is one of seven on the cul-de-sac where Swalwell has claimed residency, and she wasn’t the only one confused when shown his photo.
