Graham Platner is now out as the Democratic nominee in Maine. The allegation-plagued oysterman ended his campaign on Wednesday evening with a defiant video where he said he would file papers to withdraw his name from the ballot and then on Friday did just that.
“My name may not be on the ballot, but that ballot belongs to the people of Maine,” he wrote in his letter to the Maine Secretary of State’s office, an image of which he posted to X.
