Graham Platner must win | Letter

Pine Tree Results Super PAC is spending millions of dollars to try to convince Mainers that Sen. Susan (I know I said I would only serve for two terms, but I didn’t realize how profitable it would be) Collins cares about the state and that Graham Platner is too risky for Maine. Details, details, details.
Politics has become a chess game. Everybody needs to understand the long game. Anyone who believes Platner is too risky for Maine is, in effect, saying President Trump is not risky for America, for democracy and the world at large.
Sen. Collins has not stood up to Trump when it matters. November 2026 is the time to elect a Congress (Democrats and sensible Republicans) that will ensure that our country survives a MAGA takeover.
