Opponents went all in on smearing Graham Platner as a Nazi based on a bad tattoo choice. It didn’t work. Maine voters decided they’d rather have universal health care and an end to reckless wars than a polished politician with an unblemished past.

    The people in Maine don’t seem to care about Platner’s past, and their opinions are the only ones that matter.
