Graham Platner, the presumptive Democratic Senate nominee in Maine, faces escalating controversy over sexually explicit texts sent to multiple women during his marriage, a Nazi-linked tattoo, and inflammatory Reddit posts — yet he maintains a 9-point polling lead over Republican incumbent Susan Collins. The scandal has fractured Senate Democrats, with Sen. John Fetterman comparing the party's defense of Platner to its handling of disgraced former Rep. Eric Swalwell, while Sen. Adam Schiff ducked reporters' questions and leaders like Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren stood firm in their support.
