Graham Platner can be replaced as the Democratic nominee for Senate in Maine if he withdraws from the race by next Monday, and state law would then give the state Democratic Party until July 27 to name a replacement.



There are at least three Democrats who poll well enough to stand a chance. I do not claim any insight into who will be chosen
The selection will be made by 600 delegates to a convention, 500 selected by the county committees and 100 for the state committee members. It’s entirely insider chosen.
They need to listen to Pelosi from 2024. Hold a primary. A rapid primary, but a primary regardless.
The RCV aspect of their primary would also be very valuable, since it sounds like there will be a lot of options and little time to coalesce.
