Morris Katz Faces Scrutiny Over 2019 'Nudes' Post as He Defends Graham Platner

Summary
Morris Katz, 27, is under fresh scrutiny after 2019 and 2020 writings resurfaced while he worked to contain fallout from Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner’s sexting scandal in Maine.
The material includes a Medium post saying Katz had sent and received “nudes” and a puberty guide footnote saying he had considered using images of his own penis before a publisher rejected it.
Maine Republicans seized on the writings to argue Katz’s judgment undercuts his role in defending Platner, whose campaign has already been battered by reports of sexually explicit Kik messages early in his marriage.
Platner’s race against Sen. Susan Collins has also been shadowed by abuse allegations from an ex-girlfriend, a tattoo critics linked to Nazi symbolism, and resurfaced Reddit posts that prompted his apology.
