He did hold a rally on Memorial Day in Portland.
It felt more like a Bernie Sanders event than it did a Graham Plattner event.
I've driven by some places even in the neighborhood that I live in where I saw Plattner signs that I'm not familiar.
seen platinum signs right now.
Obviously they either got picked up or they got blew away and weren't replaced.
So I do start, I'm starting to see cracks, but what really stunned me is about Sunday's event.
There weren't a hundred people at this event where he is, you know, consistently got over a thousand people.
So it was a beautiful day.
So weather wasn't an issue.
It was an outside event in a very easily accessible place.
People just weren't there.
I don't think he can beat Collins.
Collins, you know, institutional knowledge of Maine and her ties with local communities.
She has great constituent services.
She has great relationships with police fire all throughout Maine.
She's very good at that.
Plattner came out of the box red hot.
You don't see that momentum now.
He's obviously going to win the primary because Governor Dan Mills suspended her campaign.
But I think that's going to be interesting theater with this going forward.
