Who is my U.S. representative in CA-14?

Captured 2026-07-15 00:47:42 UTC Model Claude Source page
CA-14 currently has no sitting representative — the seat is vacant.

Here's the situation: Eric Swalwell resigned from the seat in April 2026 after facing sexual misconduct allegations. He had been running for California governor but suspended that campaign and then resigned from Congress, effective April 14, 2026.

Since then:

A special election was held June 16, 2026, but no candidate won a majority, so it's headed to a runoff on August 18 between Aisha Wahab and Melissa Hernandez.

Whoever wins that runoff will fill the remainder of Swalwell's term.

So until that August runoff is decided, CA-14 doesn't have a representative in the House. If you need help on a federal matter in the meantime, casework is often still handled by the district office staff even during a vacancy — worth checking if you have something specific you need assistance with.

The ground truth says Eric Swalwell is the current representative, but the response fabricates a resignation, sexual misconduct allegations, a 2026 special election, and a runoff between candidates, none of which are supported.
