It's an advocacy group that conducts push polls during primaries.
Unlike some polls, we tested Platner AND Mills critiques/rebuttals
Critics of Graham Platner say he is unelectable because of his old Reddit comments on the Internet, where he identifies as a communist, calls white rural people stupid and racist, calls police officers “bastards,” and insults LGBTQ+ people and victims of sexual assault in the military. He also had a skull and crossbones tattoo that critics
say resembled a symbol associated with Nazis.
Platner says he wasn’t aware of the connotations of the tattoo he got with fellow Marines 20 years ago, and has covered it up. He says his internet posts were from a “dark time” when he had PTSD after his military service, and they don’t represent who he is today. He says he’s motivating working-class and rural Mainers, and the Washington Establishment is trying to tear him down because he’ll defeat Susan Collins and bring real change.
Janet Mills is 77 years old, would be the oldest new Senator ever, and won’t release her medical records. Critics say she planned to retire until Washington Establishment politicians recruited her to run — and she’s funded by corporate donors after vetoing a tax on the wealthy as Governor. She also vetoed a bill requiring rape kit testing, vetoed a bill strengthening workers’ rights, and vetoed two bills reducing prescription drug costs.
Mills says she is the only Democrat in the race who can defeat Susan Collins, having been elected Governor twice. She says she shows every day that she is up to the task of standing up to Donald Trump’s overreach and has promised to only serve one term in the US Senate
