So, that leaves either you never touched this woman in which case, you deny, sue, and fight. But if you ever had a romantic dinner for two, touched her or anything else inappropriate do yourself a favor. Drop out yesterday, fix your marriage and leave politics for good.
Personally I hope you have a solid alibi and there's no truth to it. Which is different than saying there's no proof. That isn't good enough.

Twice? That's a bigger problem. During Covid?

If you want my vote, you gotta fix this first. After Katie stopped trying, you became my guy. So fix it or drop out now.

There's heavy campaigning against Steyer right now being paid by a Realtor's association and what looks to be a builder construction union. I think Republicans are behind the funding. Somebody please get Katie warming up in the bullpen,
