New York Times Five weeks after an allegation of unwanted sexual advances upended Scott M. Stringers New York City mayoral campaign, a second woman is accusing him of sexual harassment and making unwanted advances when she said she worked for Mr. Stringer nearly three decades ago.
The woman, Teresa Logan, said that she was a waitress and tended bar at Uptown Local, an establishment on the Upper West Side that was co-founded and run in part by Mr. Stringer. In an interview, she accused Mr. Stringer of once groping her as she carried trays, making unwanted sexual advances, including kissing and groping, outside the workplace at least twice and treating her in a manner that often made her uncomfortable.
The first interactions, she said, took place in the spring of 1992, when Mr. Stringer was 32 and she was 18.

Can we at least stick to the current millennium?

Unless the accuser files a criminal complaint ( to my knowledge none of Cuomos accusers have formally charged him) I disregard the accusation. Simple rule. If you have been wronged, file charges, dont hold a press conference
