Republican U.S. Senate candidate John Kingston has joined the growing chorus of GOPers demanding Alabama's Roy Moore, whose own Senate campaign is under siege due to recently-surfaced reports alleging the Republican pursued teen-age girls when he was in his early 30s, withdraw from the race.
Kingston, who is mounting a 2018 challenge to U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren, announced Tuesday that he is "deeply troubled" by the allegations facing the former Alabama judge. Kingston released his statement a day after a fifth woman came forward to publicize her own experiences with Moore, claiming he assaulted her in a car when she was just 16 years old.
