New Jersey Lt. Gov. Dale Caldwell resigns after investigation finds sexual harassment and ethics violations

New Jersey Lt. Gov. Dale Caldwell resigned Friday, one day after Gov. Mikie Sherrill called for him to step down following an independent investigation. The report, made public Thursday, found that Caldwell sexually harassed a woman and sought a promotion for an employee with whom he had a romantic relationship without disclosing it. Caldwell, a Democrat, denies the allegations, called the report "ridiculous" and said he resigned to avoid being a distraction.
