Al Franken groping television host and model Leeann Tweeden while she slept

Two more women have come forward alleging Hollywood actor turned U.S. Senator, Al Franken, inappropriately touched them. This brings the current tally to four women, who have made sexual assault allegation against Franken. The third woman is a 38-year-old book editor. The fourth woman spoke on the condition of anonymity, out of fear she will be attacked online. She states she was groped during a photo-op with Franken.

Days prior, Leeann Tweeden and Lindsay Menz, came forward in separate, unrelated incidents, stating Franken groped them against their wishes. Both women were caught off guard by Franken's inappropriate, unwanted sexual advances. Calls have gone out for Franken to resign from Congress. Franken's presence is creating a huge distraction in Congress, as his credibility is destroyed.

The first woman, who spoke to HuffPost on condition of anonymity because she’s worried she’ll be harassed online for making the allegation, said Franken groped her when they posed for a photo after a June 25, 2007, event hosted by the Minnesota Women’s Political Caucus in Minneapolis...
