Two more Democrats—Sen. Mark Pryor of Arkansas and Rep. Allyson Schwartz of Pennsylvania—called on the embattled New York Democrat to resign.
Schwartz is notable because she's a top official at the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, where she oversees candidate recruitment for House Democrats. She's the first member of the House Democratic leadership to call on Weiner to resign.

"Having the respect of your constituents is fundamental for a member of Congress," Schwartz said in a statement to Politico's Jonathan Allen. "In light of Anthony Weiner's offensive behavior online, he should resign."

Her comments came as yet another explicit photo that Weiner allegedly sent to one of his online paramours was posted online.

As The Ticket previously reported, former Democratic National Committee chairman Tim Kaine, who is running for Senate in Virginia, was the first member o the party to publicly urge Weiner to step down.

So far, the New York congressman has remained silent—though he's reportedly making apologetic calls to his fellow Dems in hopes of surviving the scandal.
