The Democratic hopefuls vying to take on Republican Sen. Susan Collins in Maine\u2019s pivotal Senate contest are navigating how to distance themselves from the scandal-tarred Graham Platner, who formally withdrew his nomination Friday<\/a>, while claiming the populist political mantle that fired up his supporters.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s little room to maneuver in a lightning-speed campaign, with less than three weeks before the Maine Democratic Party must put forward a new standard-bearer. Platner\u2019s possible replacements have sought, in media appearances and events, to separate the messenger from the message, condemning the sexual assault allegation<\/a> that forced Platner out of the race and rebuffing his endorsement<\/a> while wrapping their arms around the ideas and rhetoric that helped the oysterman-turned-politician unexpectedly win the primary.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a fine line to walk. They need to endorse his ideas and his fury while rejecting his character,\u201d said Amanda Litman, the co-founder of Run for Something, a progressive group that helps first-time candidates seek office. \u201cPlatner\u2019s campaign captured energy and won the primary because it powerfully spoke to a frustration voters are feeling. The Democrats running for the seat will need to feed that hunger for change without making his voters feel stupid for getting duped.\u201d<\/p>\n

Since Platner announced Wednesday night that he would end his campaign<\/a>, half a dozen contenders have announced their intention to run.<\/p>\n

Late Thursday, the party announced that candidates could submit their declaration of intent to run at a nominating convention, including a 300-word statement about their vision to \u201ccontinue to build on the grassroots movement to ensure no Mainer is left behind by their next United States Senator.\u201d They will also need to collect at least 500 signatures from registered Democratic Maine voters.<\/p>\n

Maine Democratic Party Chair Charlie Dingman announced Friday night that the party would hold a nominating convention on July 25, featuring 601 voting delegates \u2014 101 members of Maine\u2019s Democratic State Committee and 500 Democrats selected from each county. The candidates will address the gathering ahead of the vote.<\/p>\n

For other Maine Democrats, a key concern is how they can thoroughly vet candidates before the July 27 deadline to select a new nominee, particularly after getting burned by the rash of vetting issues that eventually sank Platner\u2019s campaign.<\/p>\n

On Monday, a woman Platner used to date accused him of sexually assaulting her in 2021, which Platner denies. Even before then, Democrats were growing nervous about a mounting series of scandals from Platner\u2019s past, including inflammatory posts on social media, a tattoo of a Nazi symbol and sexually explicit messages that he sent to other women after he was married.<\/p>\n

Those anxieties may explain why candidates who lost the state\u2019s Democratic gubernatorial primary in June are seen as the top contenders in the newly launched Senate race, on the assumption that they have already faced at least some statewide scrutiny.<\/p>\n

Nirav Shah, who finished second in the gubernatorial primary, has quickly sought to position himself as the front-runner, calling on candidates to hold town halls across Maine and meet in a televised debate. At a campaign launch event Thursday, he was introduced by former Platner supporters and took questions from the media.<\/p>\n

Shah embraced a progressive agenda: Medicare-for-all, making billionaires \u201cpay their fair share,\u201d fixing \u201cour broken immigration system\u201d and ending foreign wars. He told voters who supported Platner that they \u201chave an important place in this campaign.\u201d<\/p>\n

But Shah\u2019s high visibility also drew renewed scrutiny to his own past scandal: a controversial tenure as Illinois\u2019 public health director, where he was slammed for mishandling a fatal outbreak<\/a> of Legionnaires\u2019 disease at the state-run veterans\u2019 home. On Thursday night, Illinois Sen. Tammy Duckworth (D), who called for Shah to resign in 2018<\/a>, publicly opposed his Senate run.<\/p>\n

\u201cMaine deserves better than someone who put his public image before the safety of our Veterans,\u201d she wrote on social media<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Shah said in a statement that he had \u201cdeep respect for Senator Duckworth,\u201d but argued that President Joe Biden\u2019s administration \u201creviewed my record and then hired me to help lead\u201d the Centers for Disease Control, and that Collins, the person he could face in November, praised the covid response in Maine that he helped lead.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m the outsider in this race, and outsiders get attacked,\u201d Shah said, echoing arguments Platner made during his run.<\/p>\n

Jordan Wood, another Democrat running to replace Platner, pointed out to The Washington Post that he called on Platner to end his campaign<\/a> in October, after learning about Platner\u2019s tattoo, when Wood was also running for Senate.<\/p>

That could bolster Wood\u2019s argument that he represents a break from Platner, but Wood later endorsed the candidate\u2019s primary campaign once Maine Gov. Janet Mills ended her Senate campaign.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor the past year, I\u2019ve run a progressive, reform-focused campaign for federal office,\u201d said Wood, who eventually pivoted to an unsuccessful congressional run in June. \u201cVoters don\u2019t need to just take my word for it; it\u2019s on my website and has been for a year. No other candidate can say that.\u201d<\/p>\n

The candidate most closely tied to Platner is Troy Jackson, a former state senator. While running for governor this year \u2014 he finished third in the Democratic primary \u2014 Jackson often boasted that he was one of Platner\u2019s earliest supporters.<\/p>\n

Since officially launching his Senate bid this week, Jackson has tried to cast himself as the rightful heir to Platner\u2019s mantle, arguing that he has long aligned with the positions that propelled Platner\u2019s win, from Medicare-for-all to workers\u2019 rights. Rep. Ro Khanna (D-California), who previously endorsed Platner, immediately began boosting Jackson.<\/p>\n

But that rhetoric has come with a downside: the closer Jackson ties himself to Platner\u2019s ideas, the easier it could be for his opponents to tie him to the candidate\u2019s baggage.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy did you just stay with him for so long?\u201d MS NOW anchor Katy Tur asked Jackson this week.<\/p>\n

Jackson said the former candidate had acknowledged that he had \u201cdark\u201d times in his past. \u201cI understand that people can change,\u201d he said of his \u201cNazi tattoo and the Reddit posts.\u201d But then he added, \u201cGraham told me point blank that there was nothing in his past that I had to worry about. And he lied to me. And he lied to a lot of us.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jackson\u2019s prior support for antiabortion causes while he served in the Maine Senate is also raising eyebrows in a race where Democrats hoped to target Collins for putting Brett M. Kavanaugh, the swing vote to overturn the constitutional right to abortion, on the U.S. Supreme Court. Jackson received a 100 percent voting score<\/a> from Maine Right to Life, an antiabortion group, <\/b>early in his career and has previously admitted to struggling<\/a> with the issue.<\/p>\n

A Jackson campaign aide said the candidate\u2019s view on abortion had \u201cevolved\u201d over the course of his career. Jackson said in a statement that he was \u201cproud … to have helped pass some of the strongest abortion rights protections in the country\u201d as the Maine Senate president.<\/p>\n

Shenna Bellows, Maine\u2019s secretary of state, has argued she is the best candidate to unite all factions of the Democratic Party. Her campaign highlights a career defending progressive causes as the executive director of the Maine ACLU and a long track record in public office, starting with her election to Maine\u2019s state Senate in 2016 in a district that also voted for President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe is well vetted and battle-tested,\u201d spokesperson Amy Weinstock said in a statement. \u201cThere will be no July or November surprises here.\u201d<\/p>\n

But Bellows, who finished fourth in the gubernatorial primary in January, could be plagued by her 2014 Senate run, when she was a political novice and lost to Collins by more than 36 percentage points.<\/p>\n

\u201cI took on that race in 2014, a very different year, because no one else wanted to,\u201d Bellows told MS NOW\u2019s Jen Psaki on Thursday. \u201cAnd I\u2019ve never backed down from a tough fight.\u201d<\/p>\n

Maine Beer Company owner Dan Kleban, who briefly ran for Senate last fall and has since jumped back in, told The Post he would keep Platner\u2019s base together because, like Platner, he is \u201cnot a career politician\u201d and they both agree \u201cthat the system is rigged against working people.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHis message resonated with Mainers, and I plan to carry it forward,\u201d Kleban said. \u201cWe\u2019re pissed off. It\u2019s time to fix the damn system by electing new leaders. We can start by defeating Susan Collins in November, which is what I plan to do.\u201d<\/p>\n

That embrace of Platner\u2019s message is notable given Kleban never endorsed his Senate campaign.<\/p>
