The eyes of the nation are on the 2026 U.S. Senate race in Maine, since a peculiar Marxist won the Democrat party nomination this past June.
In an explosive Politico report released Monday, July 6, it was alleged that Democrat nominee Graham Platner sexually assaulted his former girlfriend, Jenny Racicot in 2021.
The nominee categorically denies the charge.
They apparently agree that their relationship was “on again, off again,” having met on Bumble in 2019, which makes it somewhat murky, but of course if she said no at the time, that’s rape. She reports that she ended the relationship permanently after this 2021 incident.
Several prominent Democrats have begun retracting their endorsements of the nominee, apparently in the hope that he will drop out of the race in time to meet Maine’s July 13 deadline for the party to be allowed a two-week window in which to select a replacement.
Incumbent senator Susan Collins (R) has been a resilient political icon in Maine for decades. As a moderate Republican, she has comfortably won, consistently, in a state that Democrats always expect to capture. Would the Democrats have won this time, with Platner? It’s difficult to imagine. But the party continued to at least pay lip service to their confidence in Platner until this latest story broke.
The Statute of Limitations
We shouldn’t move on to discuss this issue without addressing the elephant in the room, from the perspective of the criminal justice system: If this happened five years ago, why didn’t the victim come forward before this?

The only thing dems care about it winning. They thought this guy was a winner. Now, that he’ll lose, he has to go. Anyone half paying attention knew all about this guy, as if having a totenkopf tattoo for years wasn’t bad enough....
The Maine Nazis want their nazi leader even if he is a rapist.
just three months ago,
Exactly one month ago.
If he doesn't withdraw...well, you know. If they force him then the Dems rig another one right in the whole county's face. They can't help themselves.
Country. Srry
The dems are blaming AIPAC, Fetterman, the boogeymen, etc. Living up to their own hypocritical low standards are now a problem.
Thanks for pointing that out. I didn’t notice the exact wording re the nomination, three months perhaps referring to some other key time stamp in the process.
Either that or time has been lumbering along for the writer.
