ELECTION 2026: MIDTERM ELECTIONS, MAINE

Okay, let's zero in on the State of Maine .... it's that big state on the east coast of the US, it looks kind of like an animal head without ears ... it is supposed to be a beautiful area, I have never been there - too far out of our way in high school (long story)

Well - they are doing their Primary races next week ... and I'm sure you've heard about Graham Platner .... he is just an "everyday Joe" running for Senator.

He was a Navy seal, then a fisherman .... and he got a=married last year by the sounds of it .... he was their "shining star" so to speak.  They figured he was a shoe in.

accept ....

First thing we heard was about his tattoo.  It is supposed to be a Skull and Crossbones which was used during WWII by the Nazis - in particular, the SS, those big bad guys dressed in black - BUT when it was pointed out, he told people he "had it removed" .... said he got it on a drunken night out with his fellow Seals, and he just thought it looked "cool".

1)he never had it "removed" he has it covered up, sort of ... he has had some ink added to it - but - IT'S STILL THERE

2)His leading opponent dropped out of the race - so he was basically supposed to walk away with the Democratic nomination.  Oh God, I hope not.

3)Remember his wife (Amy Gertner) - who just got married to him last year by the sounds of it?  Well, she turned over some salacious texts by her husband to other women, supposably while they were married.

Excuse me??

She thought she was going to get around this by bringing it forth (at least that's her current story) and somehow the media got a hold of it - oh my! 

She says she has forgiven him .... but has she really?  

And why does her name sound so familiar? 

And apparently, there was a person working for Platner - simpky stated a staffer - was going to do an interview, when she began to get threats from another Platner staffer saying he was going to ruin her and she was a liar ... hmmm, this doesn't sound fishy at all.

Platner has said "white rural people" are both "stupid" and "racist" ... say what? .... He also dismissed RAPE in the military ... 

Yeah - can we just forget about him, please?  I know Cory Booker (D-NJ) says they need him, but it seems they both have problems with women in their past ... remember, it was Booker who admitted to acting inappropriately in his younger days .... and right now - women do not mean as much it seems to ANYONE in the Democratic party as much as their voting numbers do!!!

If you can find a video of her while HE makes a statement about what's being said - look at her face ... she can't seem to keep her eyes still, she looks at him, she looks at the floor, she looks at the cameras, and in the end - she looks very SAD     about it all ...

Gov. Janet Mills, dropped out of the Senate race ... interesting, makes me wonder what happened there?  Something in her or her husband's past? Might be worth looking at, guys!

Wow - well, let's nope he will flip the state RED - and I generally don't want a state to be one way or another.
