Summary

A Politico report published July 6th details an allegation from a 41-year-old Maine resident named Jenny Racicot, who says Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner sexually assaulted her in late 2021. Platner has denied the allegations, calling any accusation of nonconsensual behavior categorically untrue and describing the report as a coordinated smear timed to the ballot deadline.
