Tom Steyer’s campaign has asked California’s secretary of state to review Eric Swalwell’s residency, arguing Swalwell may live in California only on paper as he runs for governor. The move centers on a dormant five-year residency requirement that state officials have long treated as unconstitutional or unenforceable. Steyer warns the ambiguity could spark a constitutional crisis if Swalwell wins and the Trump administration challenges his legitimacy, potentially affecting federal funds and state operations.
