"The most appropriate course of action, in my view, is to leave the final judgment in the hands of Alabama voters — where it has always belonged — and withdraw my endorsement," Cornyn said in a statement on Monday.

He added that "the accusations against Roy Moore are disturbing and, if true, disqualifying."

Cornyn's comments are the latest sign of Republicans breaking with Moore following a bombshell report claiming he pursued relationships with teenagers when he was in his 30s.

The youngest woman quoted says she was 14 at the time and that Moore initiated a sexual encounter with her.
