Platner to Speak at Activist-Led Labor Day Event in Ellsworth
Former Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner, who dropped out amid sexual assault allegations (which he denies), was announced as a speaker at a Labor Day activist-led event in Ellsworth organized by Hancock County Activists and Acadia Action Peacemakers. The appearance is not an official party event; county party posts about it were removed, and Platner has since been replaced by Troy Jackson as Democrats seek to challenge Susan Collins.
