Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner has firmly denied allegations of sexual assault made by his former girlfriend about an incident in 2021. Currently, he is contemplating whether to continue his campaign amidst the controversy.
The Maine Democratic Party has accused Platner of attempting to interfere with the process of selecting a replacement candidate, should he decide to withdraw from the race. Platner’s campaign quickly responded to these accusations, stating they were not trying to exert undue influence on the party. Instead, they were attempting to understand the potential procedures involved if the need arises.
Platner’s team emphasized their intention was only to gain clarity on how the replacement process would unfold as Platner weighs his next steps.
