Wife Reveals Platner's Explicit Texts During Maine Senate Campaign Vetting

The wife of Democratic Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner told his campaign in 2025 about sexually explicit texts he had sent to other women, a disclosure made during an internal vetting process and first reported by the Wall Street Journal. Gertner said the couple has since reconciled, though she criticized a campaign staffer for betraying her private details. Platner, the presumptive Democratic nominee who would face Republican Sen. Susan Collins, has faced other controversies (a Nazi-symbol tattoo he later covered up and past online comments) and has been endorsed by Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren. He attributes some earlier views to PTSD and his Marine service.)
