Breaking: Rep. Eric Swalwell, a four-term Bay Area congressman, is announcing his bid for the 2020 Democratic nomination.
Four-term Bay Area Rep. Eric Swalwell is an underdog in the crowded 2020 Democratic field. He hopes his Iowa roots will help in that early-voting state.
Fittingly, he chose national television as the venue to declare his intent, saying on CBS’ “Late Show with Stephen Colbert” he would “go big on the issues we take on, be bold in the solutions we offer and do good in the way we govern.”. Still, he will have to work to distinguish himself in a crowded field approaching 20 contestants.
Perhaps his greatest distinction is his birthplace, in rural Iowa, where Swalwell lived until age 5, when his family moved to California., and the congressman has all but taken up formal residency in the state.
