What was said
"One of the reasons I didn't come forward sooner was the huge moral conflict that I had between supporting his politics but not supporting him as a person. I know that he is capable of putting his hands on women."
Jenny Rascott, a former girlfriend of Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner, has accused him of rape in 2021, providing corroborating evidence including therapist correspondence and witness accounts. Rascott alleges Platner entered her home uninvited while drunk and forced himself on her despite repeated refusals. Platner has denied the accusations and postponed campaign events while evaluating his Senate race against Susan Collins.
