A former Marine and oysterman, Platner’s exit comes after a wave of accusations he denies, calling them politically motivated. With a July 13 deadline to withdraw and just 14 days for the party to find a replacement to challenge GOP Senator Susan Collins, Democrats are scrambling — and notable names like Patrick Dempsey have already declined. Platner’s rise was fueled by progressive energy, but his campaign was also marred by past offensive remarks and a controversial tattoo. Now, the race is in flux — and the stakes couldn’t be higher.
