Democratic presidential candidate Beto O'Rourke says he's never taken the illegal drug LSD and there's "nothing" he hasn't already revealed about his past that could hurt his candidacy.

O'Rourke also committed Sunday during a stop in Madison, Wisconsin, to stop using the F-word while campaigning, a profanity he used frequently while running for the U.S. Senate in Texas and while exploring his presidential bid.

O'Rourke was asked about his past drug use after signing a person's skateboard. Another voter asked O'Rourke if he was going to "clean up his act" and stop using profanities, especially in front of his children.

O'Rourke says "great point, and I don't intend to use the F-word going forward. Point taken, and very strongly made. ... We're going to keep it clean."
