Platner Withdraws, Democrats Seek Successor topic image

Graham Platner withdrew as the Democratic nominee for Maine’s 2026 Senate race after sexual-assault allegations triggered pressure from party leaders, donors, and endorsers.

His departure removed his name from the ballot and opened a tightly timed replacement process for Democrats seeking a challenger to Republican incumbent Susan Collins. Potential successors include Troy Jackson, Nirav Shah, and Shenna Bellows, while funding, endorsements, and issue positioning remain unsettled.
