A second woman accused Virginia Lieutenant Governor Justin Fairfax of sexual assault on Friday afternoon.
Meredith Watson released a statement saying she was assaulted by Fairfax while the two were students at Duke University in 2000.
Fairfax denied Watson's allegations.
Earlier this week, Vanessa Tyson - a professor at Scripps College in California - accused Fairfax of assaulting her during the Democratic National Convention in Boston, in 2004.
