Collins is not great, but Platner came straight from hell. Don't forget in 2020, Collins was 10 points behind in the polls and still won.

She was never behind. The media was just hyping up Platner.

99% chance he’s about to get the rug pulled out from under him. They’ll soon be introducing another democrat candidate.

This trend will continue, no matter how much lipstick the Democrat overlords try to put on that pig. Hehehe.

The choices are between a communist/Nazi or the walking the dead as a Senators for US Congress. The northeast is beyond shot!

Allowing the Democrat voters to choose Platner is a threat to our democracy. The Party will step in and select the right person.

WHY is Schumer screaming about getting rid of Collins? She votes with the dems most of the time so what’s his beef?

What difference does it really make? Collins is always a vote against MAGA.

I don’t think Collins is the greatest but she is a lot better than Murkowski or McConnell. We get the majority of her votes which must be put in the context that we would get NONE of a Democrat’s votes.

Janet Mills the current Governor will be the Democratic Candidate, she was actively campaigning before Platner pulled way ahead in the polls, I think she’s technically still on the ballot even though she’s not actively running.

Be prepared for the bait and switch. The Democrat party will not stick with a candidate that’s polling behind. Planter will resign and get replaced by a party selected choice - similar to the Harris situation.

Bruce Poliquin would, still, be in Congress, today, if it wasn’t for the ongoing existence of ranked choice voting in Maine!
