Mills is just a conceited old boomer trying to cap off a decades long political career with a Senate seat. She's running for the same reason Biden tried to run for president again and it's going about as well for the same reasons. Hell it wouldn't shock me if she's senile and her aides are just puppeting her to further their careers in Washington.

Platner got recruited by the Bernie people who sort of have some traction in the local labor movement, and the local labor movement hates Mills (with good reason). They really did pull him out of the woodwork. He was a nobody before this and I think it was a surprise to Mills and the state Dems that the Berniecrats put someone forward.

I still wouldn't be too shocked if Mills won the primary despite all this though. Platner is popular with young people but the average voter in Maine is like over 60 and the old folks don't like him.

I haven’t seen a single mills sign anywhere and I’m in the oldest part of an old state. All the ancient demokkkrats I despise are cuckoo for graham kkkrakkker.
