Katie Hill was a rising star in California Democratic politics. She flipped a longtime Republican district in Santa Clarita in 2018.
Less than a year later, she was forced to resign after compromising photos were leaked. She later admitted to having an inappropriate relationship with a campaign staffer, though denied accusations of an inappropriate relationship with a Congressional staffer. The relationship would have violated U.S. House of Representative ethics rules.
