19. So did Platner lie to Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren at their June 2 meeting

when they asked him if there were any more damaging stories that could come out?

Democratic senators, including Warren, pressed Platner on whether new allegations could emerge, according to report

Graham Platner, Maine’s presumptive Democratic nominee for US Senate, was asked in a closed-door meeting of Senate Democrats this week if any more allegations against him could emerge, according to a report from the Wall Street Journal.

The meeting, which took place in Washington, D.C., on Tuesday, followed reports over the weekend that Platner’s wife had told a campaign aide shortly into him launching his Senate bid that she discovered sexually explicit texts with several women on his phone months earlier. The report added to the list of scandals clouding Platner’s freshman campaign against veteran GOP Senator Susan Collins.

According to the Journal’s report, published Wednesday, Planter was pressed during the meeting by two of his New England allies, senators Bernie Sanders of Vermont and Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts. Sanders asked Platner if any additional allegations could emerge against him. Warren followed Sanders’ question by saying there is a difference between marital issues and allegations of sexual assault.
