Exactly. He has a very good vibe in person and because of how humans work, that's what they go for! Also the majority of dem primary voters in Maine (like all voters in Maine) are older. They're MAYBE on Facebook and that's it.

"Why do you want to have a 1970s music pavilion at the Shakespeare festival?"

"It features wine made by the chairman of the Chinese Communist Party!"

I think both Platner and Mills have pros and cons. I wish we had more candidates.

Disclosures: I'm a lifelong Mainer. I personally interviewed Platner in September 2025. Janet Mills sent me two Robert McCloskey picture books when my son was born.

I get tne Bluesky reaction to Graham Platner. But the other primary candidate is a 77 year old traditional liberal/moderate former prosecutor who was handpicked by Chuck Schumer and the Democratic establishment. Which somehow I don't think Bluesky will like either
