Will Maine voters extend 'forgiveness' to another Graham Platner controversy?

Graham Platner, an oyster farmer and military veteran, is the presumptive Democratic Senate candidate running to unseat five-term Republican Senator Susan Collins in the midterms. Platner has garnered a lot of enthusiasm for his anti-establishment platform, but he’s also been dogged by controversy. NPR's Leila Fadel sat down with Platner for a wide-ranging interview where he spoke about the kind of masculinity he represents.

You can hear Platner talk more about his political plans, the tattoo he used to have on his chest that resembled a Nazi symbol, and why he thinks his message is resonating with voters in Maine, despite his controversies, on our Youtube channel.
