Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner is facing new allegations this morning. The New York Times spoke with several of Platner's ex-girlfriends, some of whom claim the Maine politician was "volatile and toxic" during their time together. The Times also spoke with several other former girlfriends who gave a different account of Platner, calling him a "gentle giant." Platner has acknowledged a troubled past but denied any claims of physical violence. MS NOW congressional reporter Kevin Frey talked to voters in Maine about the latest controversy.
