Maine Democrat Graham Platner on Friday formally withdrew from his US Senate bid in a letter to state elections officials that signed off with an F-bomb.
Platner posted on X a picture of the letter, which did not share any immediate details about who he hoped would succeed him to face Republican incumbent Sen. Susan Collins in November.
The missive touted the 156,084 votes he had received in Maine’s Senate Democratic primary last month, suggesting that his more than 70-percentage-point win showed: “People are desperate for change.”
“Mainers voted for a new kind of politics,” the letter read. “One that is representative of people down here in the real world — not billionaires, oligarchs or the political establishment.”
“Mainers voted for Medicare for All; to ban billionaires from buying elections; and for an end to taxpayer-funded genocide and forever wars,” it also stated.
“F*ck ICE. Free Palestine. Up the Hearts,” it concluded.
Platner, 41, announced the suspension of his campaign on Wednesday after his ex-girlfriend Jenny Racicot accused him of entering her home without permission and raping her in 2021.
The Maine Democratic Party and others withdrew their support in the wake of Politico and CNN interviews with Racicot earlier this week. The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee also said it would refuse to invest in Platner’s race if he remained on the ballot.

That should be “credibly accused.”
Least shocking thing is a Nazi rapist is anti-Israel and has TDS.
It’s all a comorbidity.
(Ground penetrating bombing would be a good start.)
Commies aren’t happy.

They did not force him out because he’s a credibly accused rapist.
He was forced out because a) they thought he would lose; b) they were afraid that if he won, they could not control him; and c) he was vocally anti-Israel.
So I guess talks went poorly if he didn’t name his successor. Does that mean they threatened him to keep his mouth shut about replacement?
Here’s my message, Platner. Bomb “Palestine” ( a fake place that has never existed) back to the stone age.
He wouldn't last two weeks.

Of course he'd align himself with a group of rapists.
What a shame. He was the perfect Rat candidate.

Pronto.
So a Nazi hates the Jews. What a shocker.
