      As I understand it the Dems have until July 13th according to Maine election law to replace him if they’re going to. So she wouldn’t necessarily be running unopposed.

        So, they would just get to “choose” a new candidate, at the last minute? All of a sudden, this seems incredibly fishy.

          As I understand it, yes they would just pick someone to replace Platner if he dropped out. I could be wrong, but that’s what it seemed like from what I was reading.

            Honestly, these allegations themselves do seem pretty legit…it’s just the timing that makes them seem suspicious.
