There's a lot of speculation on Twitter but it's unclear what would be legal.

You didn't answer my question -- have you ever spoken to an assault or rape survivor 1-on-1?
Do you think that every allegation of sexual assault is politically motivated?
1) Yes, I have spoken to a rape survivor. It messed her up. She was raped by a guy she thought was her friend. I was touched, and emotionally moved, that she trusted me enough to tell me such a thing.
2) No, not every allegation is politically motivated but THESE allegations right before the election, and being over 30 years after it supposedly happened, yes, I am 99% certain it is politically motivated.
There is nothing apart from a decision handed down in court by a judge that will convince me otherwise, because it is only hearsay and "she said...she thinks....she believes" whatever the words the media coaches put into her mouth to say.
I do not buy it for a second, and neither do any of the republicans I know, and neither does my cousin in Tuscaloosa buy it, nor does his wife. It is baloney, and soon we shall see that it for exactly what it was: a big flapping pile of putrid baloney ginned up by the media and their collaborators.

If Moore were running in VA, I would be first in line to go vote for him because I am 99% certain the allegations are false. As far as I am concerned, if you waited over 30 years to file a grievance it was no grievance, and most likely in that time your mind is not clear any more on details.
We do not have a rape culture like the silly sot-potted news media claims, we have a rape allegation culture where many "Potiphar's wife" types of women go out of their way to get men into trouble, but only if they man is Republican or conservative will the media give it much attention.
Have you ever talked to sexual assault and rape survivors? Have you shut your mouth and tried to read or listen to their stories? Many, many men think they are entitled to just grab a woman's ass in a bar, or whip out their d*cks, or drug people for sex, penetrate them while they are sleeping, catcall them, corner them on streets and in parking lots and in offices. and on and on and on. AND ON.
Here is some information about reasons why victims don't come forward:

There are many reasons, and the impacts of sexual assault are grave and nuanced and emotional.
Here are some stories of people who have been molested or assaulted or raped and everything in between - by powerful people, by adults when they were kids, by family members - and many of these have never told anyone outside of an anonymous forum of platform. Please, please read through them and consider that these people are real people with real stories. Please.

Obviously it's your right to vote for Roy Moore or whomever or no one, but please try to open your mind and have some compassion and empathy.

No more Democrat-lite candidates! It is time to clean house, starting with the McConnells and Corkers and the rest of the corrupt, entrenched Democrat-lite republicans. We want them gone, not replaced with worthless candidates like Jeb Bush, or Romney.
I hope republicans come out in overwhelming support for Moore and elect him into office. Nobody believes these allegations against him so conveniently appearing just before the election.
And if it is proven true Moore was sexually immoral, the Democrats in Alabama will consider him one of their own like Weinstain, Bill Clinton, and Robert Menendez and probably end up voting Moore into office anyway as being a scumbag seems to be a badge of honor to put a (D) by your name. .
Quite the screed. If you weren’t so busy frothing at the moon you would have known Corker isn’t running for re-election. Try anger managent therapy.
Notice the plural "s" the end of Corker: the Corkers... that is, politicians like Corker. I knew Corker was not running for re-election which is why I put the "s" on the end to denote politicians like him who must be voted out of office and all the others like him.
