(CNN) - Anthony Weiner, the embattled New York City mayoral candidate who admitted this week to sending raunchy chats to a young woman last summer, estimated Thursday he had online relationships with three different women after his 2011 resignation from Congress.
But speaking at a news conference, the Democrat said he couldn't say for sure how many more women might come forward.
"There are a few. I don't have a specific number for you," Weiner said. "There are people I've had exchanges with that are completely appropriate, and that there are no pictures or illicit texts or anything. Now if those people want to say they don't like the exchanges we had either, I don't know where to put them."

Weiner stepped down from his House seat in 2011 after admitting to sending lewd photos and messages to multiple women online. He pointed out Thursday that when he left the House of Representatives, he admitted to exchanging messages with six women.
He then provided a rough total of how many women he's engaged with sexually online.
"It's not dozens and dozens," he said. "It's six to ten, I suppose, but I can't tell you absolutely what people are going to consider inappropriate or not."

Pressed to provide a guess as to how many of those relationships occurred after his resignation, Weiner said, "I don't believe I had any more than three."
Weiner has resisted calls from his rivals to withdraw from the race for New York City mayor, saying the decision of whether he's trustworthy enough for the job should be up to voters.

------------------
If he cannot answer that question, then he is totally unfit for any elected office.
Three more? REALLY? The real problem is he's estimating even. He doesn't even know how many.
He is smart guy and knows how many but the charade most go on... Power and narcissism top the list for crushing many a man.
Maybe he could ask the NSA for a FISA warrant, and get an accurate count for all of us.
Weiner: Crawl back under a rock.
This guy is absolutely DISGUSTING - and, horribly ugly too. He's just a dam pig.
He's a life long politician who was part of that Schumer Team.........
He's an absolute disgrace to American politics and needs to get mental help.
Anthony.......PLEASE JUST GO AWAY
What an arrogant loser! As a NYer, hell will freeze over before I'd vote for this guy.
George Costanza: "Was that wrong? Because if somebody had told me that it was wrong,...."
Wiener/Holder 2016 or bust.
But since he has a "D" before his name it's ok. He'll be blindly voted into office.
he looks suicidal to me. maybe he could get a job at home depot selling grills? seriously, he is a disgrace.
Mayor of NYC?Nah!Dog catcher?Maybe.
You would think with a last name like Weiner you'd try to steer clear of making your life more of a punchline than it already is.
So funny. He texts women. Does make him not able to perform his job? Not sure.... His wife will have to take him CAM away.....
That he is even ALLOWED to run for an office in this country speaks volumes as the moral lows that we have stooped to. Does this even make an ants bit of sense to anyone? There is another law that should be changed. Lord help us.
OMG! This guy needs to get some serious help and why his wife wants to stand by him and enable this type of behavior blows my mind.
Does Anthony Weiner get it??!!! Really you still want to run for public office.
He "estimates three"
Really?
If it is three , you would know exactly that it was three. that's pretty simple.
Lets see there was Jill, Megan, and Susan. ... three.
How do you "Estimate" three?
Were you black out drunk most of the time?
Seriously dude.
The fact that NY'ers would even consider voting for this guy explains a lot about their on personal views. Liberal barf..............
It is unbelievable that this demoralized pervert who constantly lies, is actullay running for mayor. He must be delusional and should seek profesional help. How can anyone trust this man in politics.
Please, New Yorkers, do the right thing. Send this creep packing. My standards for personal conduct are pretty low, I expect everyone's got their little peccadilloes. But this guy's over the top. You've got to hold the Mayor of New York to a higher standard of integrity, forthrightness and judgment. Say no to Anthony Weiner. Your city, your state, and this country deserve better.
If he couldn't see this coming, he's ranks among the worst politicians ever. It's the equivalent of giving the Captian of the Exxon Valdez a ship full of oil.
The problem is that he thinks it is OK by 'fessing up.' Anyone that votes for this guy is crazy.
This dude is a swag butler!!!
His polls are sagging. They used to watch him shave, now they watch him shine his shoes......
