Democrats pull endorsements for Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner amid sexual assault allegation

Platner won the Democratic nomination last month, setting himself up to face Republican Sen. Susan Collins. A woman who previously dated Maine Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner said he drunkenly forced her to have sex after she told him to stop, according to a Politico report, leading prominent supporters to pull their endorsements and throwing a must-win race for the party into turmoil.
