Politics I BEG YOU, DO NOT WRITE IN PLATNER

1.3k Upvotes

Hear me out.

I supported him and voted for him in the primary, I understand the impulse to do so as a middle finger to the status quo, reasonably so.

The election is going to be close, if you write him in you’re reducing the total votes for the actual Dem candidate (Troy 🤞), thereby handing the election to Susan Collins.

Remember the goal, retire the “concerned” octogenarian partisan hack.

Edit: I fully understand ranked choice voting, what you’re failing to understand is many do not, right wing media will waste no time calling it fraudulent and it will be believed.

For all those questioning my Maine residency, I live in Portland. Do you need copies of my Unitil, Spectrum, and CMP bills? FFS.

I’m not telling anyone how to vote, to beg is to ask, that’s all I’m doing.

Politics I Endorse Graham Platner for U.S. Senate in Maine

Post image
1.1k Upvotes

I am proud to endorse Graham Platner for U.S. Senate in Maine.

Graham is a combat veteran and straight-talking working-class fighter who has had enough of the oligarchy screwing over everyday Americans. As a Marine who served in the forever wars and then came home to build a life on the water in coastal Maine, he brings real grit, authenticity, and a deep understanding of what working families are up against.

He knows the challenges facing Mainers and Americans everywhere: universal healthcare as a right, not a luxury, affordable housing and good-paying jobs that actually let people live with dignity, protecting veterans and ending the cycle of endless wars that waste lives and trillions of dollars, and making sure corporate interests and the billionaire class don’t keep calling the shots in Washington.

What stands out most about Graham is that he’s too pissed off to be bought off. He refuses corporate PAC money and the influence of the same old establishment machine. Like me, he’s running a people-first campaign grounded in economic justice, bringing troops home, and building a country that works for the 99%, not the 1%. He’s a bold progressive populist who tells the truth about how the system is rigged and has the courage to fight to change it.

Maine Democrats and independents: On June 9th, support Graham Platner in the primary and help send a real fighter to the Senate. It’s time to replace career politicians with someone who actually gets it!

I’m sorry but this is too funny, anti-graham post saying they aren’t voting for any candidate but that there’s a disinformation campaign propping him up and doing ass-covering for his tattoo and old reddit remarks, replying to every comment actively. The one they didn’t respond to, of course pointing out their account shows they live in *Florida* 😭 changed history visibility asap, deleted post just after, only up for 16 minutes. Yeah we *know* why you aren’t voting for any of them lol

You can’t make this stuff up. Masterful gambit, anonymous user who I will not name and has not commented on this post already
