4. A woman who didn't think it was worth contacting law enforcement

And she didn’t mention it last fall when Platner’s past was already making news? No, she waits until 7 days before another person can take the place of Platner? Too late to do a fair re-selection for a replacement candidate. Even a month earlier would be more understandable. But 7 days???

Failing to put the popular-in-Maine Platner on the ballot will ensure Maine’s senate seat (and therefore the Senate) remain in Republican hands, thwarting control of Trump’s pick of agency heads. But hey, a woman’s old, unproven accusation was heard, so I guess it’s good for all Americans. Kumbaya.
