Republican Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore said once again he is not quitting the race, even after at least three more women came forward with sexual assault allegations.

  • One woman claims Roy Moore groped her
  • Moore says reports of harassment untrue

At least three new allegations of misconduct surfaced on Wednesday, including one by Tina Johnson, who told AL.com that Moore groped her during a 1991 meeting in his law office. Two others told The Washington Post they were young women when Moore courted them as a district attorney in his 30s.

Three other women told the newspaper last week that they were teens when Moore tried to initiate romantic relationships. One said she was 14 when Moore touched her over her bra and underwear.

"They're not only untrue, but they have no evidence to support them," Moore exclaimed. "And the Washington Post is certainly not evidence."

Moore ignored mounting calls from Washington Republicans concerned that he may not only lose a seat they were sure to win but also may do significant damage to the party’s brand among women nationwide as they prepared for a difficult midterm election season.

Moore also claimed that Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell was trying "to steal this election" and has been calling for him to step down.

Moore says he wants to get back to focusing on the issues.

Moore’s attorney has demanded that one of the accusers, Beverly Young Nelson, release a yearbook she contends Moore signed so it can be analyzed by a handwriting expert to prove its authenticity. Nelson says that Moore aggressively groped her in a locked car when she was 16.

The Moore campaign dug up Nelson’s divorce papers, which had been signed by Moore, and held them up to cameras suggesting she had copied the signature.
