from Winston–Salem News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Maine’s Senate race just hit a major blow as Democratic candidate Graham Platner abruptly suspended his campaign amid explosive allegations—including sexual assault—that have severely damaged his bid. Once seen as a key Democratic recruit, Platner now faces mounting scrutiny over claims of domestic abuse and past relationships, with his legal team denying them outright. The fallout could reshape the closely watched midterm race, especially with an independent currently holding the seat. As more details emerge—including from a former girlfriend—Democrats scramble to respond, leaving the future of this pivotal contest uncertain.
