Graham Platner Pulls MS NOW Interview as Reports Allege Explicit Messages to 6 Women

4 articles · Updated · Fox News · Jun 1
  • Eugene Daniels said Graham Platner’s team pulled a planned appearance on MS NOW’s “The Weekend” after new reports alleged the Maine Senate candidate sent explicit messages to at least six women while married.
  • Platner’s campaign disputed that account, saying no interview was ever scheduled and that he spent Sunday at back-to-back campaign events talking with voters in Maine.
  • Amy Gertner, Platner’s wife, released a 5-minute video condemning what she called gossip and pointing to the strain of infertility and a Senate campaign, but she did not directly deny the messaging allegations.
  • Daniels said the texts were not mere rumor because Gertner herself had shared them with the campaign, and he argued the latest episode added to a pattern of controversies already dogging Platner’s candidacy.
