There's an incident that's been widely reported now that I remember happening up here where he allegedly threw a half-filled plastic water bottle across a room in an argument with
with another Democrat in the Senate when he was Senate president.
And so they're definitely going to seize on that.
He has other things from his history that I'm sure are going to come out.
But unlike Plattner, Jackson has been out in the public eye to some extent for more than 20 years.
So I think finding that dirt is going to be a little bit more difficult than with Plattner, which we all saw how much dirt came up during that campaign.
Yeah, I'd say that that memory of 2024 really hung heavily over the state Democratic leaders as they tried to figure out a way to do this.
They wanted to make sure they were still respecting the overwhelming support that Graham Platner received in the Democratic primary.
He received more votes in our June primary than any Senate primary candidate in history.
Seventy two percent of the vote.
I mean, granted, Governor Janet Mills had withdrawn from the race at that point.
And there was a third candidate who really hadn't gotten much traction.
But so there was a sense from among the Democratic leadership they needed to do this in a way that would still allow Platinum supporters to have a voice.
And I think we saw that.
with the delegate selection process where Jackson was able to turn out so many supporters because of his deep roots in the labor unions in Maine who can turn out people on a dime.
And then also the support among Graham Plattner's followers because
They had such a similar message.
But kind of to Elena's point about some of the voters she talked to, I think one of the big things with Maine is that this is a state that has a very long history of split-ticket voters.
So you have Democrats who have voted for Collins in the past.
You have independents who will vote for a Republican in one race and will vote for a Democrat in another race.
