That said, he was leading until like two or three days ago, I think was the most recent poll that came out that had a main governor, Janet Mills, in the lead above him.

We're not talking about the main race.

So he's challenging Janet Mills for the primary.

Behind the Bastards

And yeah, at present, according to SoCal Strategies, who did a poll very recently, and this is the most recent poll, Mills has 41% from likely voters and Plattner has 36%, although about a fifth of respondents are undecided.

It Could Happen Here Weekly 206

Yeah, polling, never wrong.

Behind the Bastards
It Could Happen Here Weekly 206

But yeah, so I don't know.

Behind the Bastards
It Could Happen Here Weekly 206

It's one of those, somebody got angry at us on the subreddit being like, I can't believe they're hiding that like this has happened, you know, with this guy that they endorsed.

Behind the Bastards
It Could Happen Here Weekly 206

Like, no, we didn't endorse him.
