Roy Moore’s list of accusers — and enemies — is growing. The Washington Post reported Wednesday that two other women say he pursued them while they were teenage mall employees and he was in his 30s. One claims he gave her a forceful, unwanted kiss.

Moore says the charges are politically motivated.

What happens next is anyone’s guess. Here are the likeliest scenarios for what happens to Moore, ranked from least likely (6) to most likely (1).

6. Moore drops out before the Dec. 12 election

5. A new election is held

4. The state party forces Moore out

3. Moore stays in and another Republican candidate launches a write-in campaign

2. Moore stays in the race, and he wins or loses

1. Moore stays in the race, wins and the Senate expels him.
