YouTube Description
as posted by the channelEmbattled Maine Senate hopeful Graham Platner put forward his wife to answer for him after he was outed as having a profile on creepy hookup app Kik — as the Dem candidate himself stays silent. Amy Gertner, who married Platner in 2023, said that she was “deeply hurt” about the campaign’s former political director, whom she tipped off about the sexting, confirming the messages to the press. “It makes me really angry, disappointed, and I find it really shameful that there’s a group of media outlets and people who are willing to spread gossip, instead of talking about real issues that Graham is running on, like healthcare and education and childcare,” Gertner groused in a video addressing the scandal.
