Platner "soldiers on"

NEW: Graham Platner Soldiers On

From my vantage on the ground here in Maine, rumors of Platner's demise have been greatly exaggerated. I've seen many campaigns implode in my 15 years covering national politics — none looked like this. www.midcoastvillager.com/news/politic...

1. Seems the MAGA/GOP is rooting for him to win.

From your link

Mills’ team is convinced that Platner would be dead in the water against Collins and thinks they have a strong case to make that will sway Democratic voters in time, since the top issue for most is simply beating Collins. Republicans also seem to view Platner as the weaker candidate, elevating him when they can by, for instance, releasing a private poll that showed him leading against Mills.

2. Planter won't be "Soldiering on" as "Working Class",

though.. because .. he clearly is Not...

Snip***

He’s not working class.

His mom is an entrepreneur. His dad is an attorney. His grandpa was the modernist architect and furniture designer Warren Platner, who worked with the firm that, among other things, designed Dulles International Airport and a college at Yale. (There are chairs, literal chairs, named after him.) Graham Platner started up his oyster farm with the family’s financial assistance. And that’s not even the best part.
