This means he can be replaced with another Democrat

Per the NYT

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.

    Sorry… are you claiming that the CIA are the ones who put a totenkopf on his chest for 20 years? And then covered it up with celtic imagery that is ALSO associated with white supremacy?

    Because… I’mma be honest? I would totally invoke St Dril by giving them props for pulling that off.

    Everything about Platner’s past and the media frenzy was he/said-she/said.

    Actually, up until a few months ago (well, apparently much longer if you were in the women’s groups on facebook et al that warned about dangerous men), it was mostly “he said”. With the “he” being platner himself.

    Or was that also the CIA?

    Wait. Dog. IS PLATNER A ROBOT?!?!?!?!?! Is he like the mech suit from Men in Black 1 and if we flick his ear just right then we’ll see he is piloted by a tiny Christian Slater?
