«Breaking News» California Democratic Party chairman forced to RESIGN over staff sexual misconduct allegations

The chair of the California Democratic Party resigned his position on Thursday as he faced an internal investigation related to multiple sexual misconduct claims.

Eric Bauman is accused of making sexually explicit comments to staffers and subjecting them to unwanted touching.

He said in a statement that 'it is in everyone’s best interest for me to resign.'

He made his decision, he said, 'in order for those to whom I may have caused pain and who need to heal, for my own health, and in the best interest of the party that I love. 

Bauman was the state party's first openly gay leader. A Los Angeles Times exposé on Wednesday aired complaints from seven different party employees.

California Democratic Party chair Eric Bauman is being investigating by the party for alleged sexual misconduct

They accused him of talking about his genitalia and those of others in the workplace, and making unwanted remarks about sex acts and his own desires for sex with members of the staff.

One woman told the Times that Bauman told her she had been a gay man in a previous life, and that he wanted to sleep with her.

A 21-year-old temp said Bauman had repeatedly asked her and another woman if they were having sex. 

California Governor-Elect Gavin Newsom called on Bauman to resign on Thursday.

In a statement today he said that he will now be taking a leave of absence to get treatment for alcohol abuse and other medical issues

'Sexual harassment shouldn’t be tolerated – no person or party, no matter how powerful, is above accountability,' Newsom spokesman Nathan Click said in a statement.

Bauman, 59, had already said he would take a leave of absence and seek alcohol abuse treatment.

'I deeply regret if my behavior has caused pain to any of the outstanding individuals with whom I’ve had the privilege to work. I appreciate the courage it took for these individuals to come forward to tell their stories,' his statement said.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
