In a speech scheduled for Tuesday night, Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner intends to highlight his stance on the upcoming election. He seeks to position it as a referendum on President Trump. The speech, which The Post has obtained, highlights his strategy to challenge incumbent Senator Susan Collins.
During a recent campaign town hall in Portland, Maine, Platner received support from his audience. One supporter presented him with a card reading, “We Are Your Grahamily and We’ve Got Your Back.” This show of support reflects the grassroots energy surrounding his campaign.
Platner aims to run a decidedly negative campaign against Collins. His focus will be on swaying independents and Democrats by underscoring his opposition to the current political climate. This approach suggests a tough race ahead as he attempts to undermine Collins’ support base.
