Craig Cheslog, California Democratic Party Regional Director for the Northern California Second District, was forced to step down following widespread grassroots pressure throughout the state.
His crime? Sexual assault and misconduct. The state's elected Democratic representatives are out of control, and now even the CA Democratic Party brass are out of line with one another!
The Los Angeles Times reports:
A regional director with the California Democratic Party submitted his
resignation on Thursday, nearly two weeks after a 23-year-old woman reported
that he sexually assaulted her last year, spurring party leaders to seek his
ouster.

Wow! The Democrats are eating their own and in the most liberal of states, too!
Craig Cheslog served as Region 2 director spanning the East Bay, Napa,
Sonoma and the Clearlake areas. In a statement, his lawyer, Mary P. Carey, said
she and her client were “confident that a full and fair exploration of this
matter, undertaken in an appropriate, fact-governed venue, would exonerate Mr.
Cheslog.”

Democratic Party Chairman Eric Bauman and other officials initially
called for Cheslog’s removal in a Nov. 29 letter to state party secretary Jenny
Bach. They said he was seen acting “in an inappropriate and sexually aggressive
manner” toward a member of the party in a public area of the Westin San
Francisco Airport Hotel, following a Nov. 18 executive board meeting.

“The level to which this activity advanced made a number of those in
attendance uncomfortable,” the letter stated. It added that another member
reported "that Mr. Cheslog raped her at a CDP executive board meeting the
previous year."
