Elizabeth Warren endorses Platner in Maine Democratic Senate primary

Warren supports Platner for his economic populism, grassroots backing, and stance against corporate PAC money in a tight Maine Senate primary against Gov. Mills.

  • On Thursday, Sen. Elizabeth Warren endorsed Graham Platner, a combat veteran and oyster farmer, as the best candidate to challenge Sen. Susan Collins in Maine.
  • Warren, who has boosted progressive campaigns this year, cited Platner’s economic-populist platform and grassroots support as key to her endorsement criteria.
  • Warren's endorsement immediately expanded Platner's roster of Senate backers, making her the fourth sitting senator to endorse him alongside Sen. Bernie Sanders, Sen. Martin Heinrich, and Sen. Ruben Gallego, and Platner called it an honor.
