Episode Details

Maine’s Senate race just got national attention as voters head to the polls in a high-stakes primary. Republican Senator Susan Collins, seeking her sixth term, faces a tight Democratic battle led by oyster farmer and vet Graham Platner—backed by Bernie Sanders and Chuck Schumer but mired in controversy over past allegations and a divisive tattoo. Governor Janet Mills, who dropped out earlier this year, is still on the ballot, while David Costello pushes his government experience and working-class appeal. If Platner wins the nomination, polls show a razor-thin edge over Collins—with plenty of voters still undecided. This could be the pivotal race shaping Washington’s balance of power in November.
