The National GOP leaders have poured millions of dollars into the Senate campaign here trying to defeat Graham Platner. They are nervous. Graham is a different kind of candidate. Even with the specious rumors and claims of salacious behavior on his part, The state Democrats threw their support behind Graham.
Graham Platner is a 4 Tour Army Vet turned Oyster Farmer who won yesterday's primary with a resounding 74% of the vote. Our term limited governor, Jamet Mills was 2nd with around 19%.
Maine voters showed they will not be swayed by Right Wing assholes from away who think they know us. From my experience as a long time citizen of Maine, Mainers treasure real, in your face dialogs, not bullshit or lies. Graham is one of those Mainers. He is blunt. in your face; yet willing to admit his mistakes in his past.
This morning Graham was interviewed on MS-Now's, "Morning Joe". Yes, Morning Joe tends to favor anyone but the Trump and the GOP, but they do operate with an eye to being fair. The interview was not like the sickening boot licking interviews of the Right's incompetent leadership on Fox Spews or OAN. Joe and Mika did not step around the baggage from Graham's past. Platner was frank and open I thought. He is carrying on without shame. ......... He continues to be forthright and open as any of us would be when baring our inner selves. I took from the interview, that Graham held his own and answered their questions candidly and did not do the tap dance of denials or shifting blame. Here is the complete interview :
