Perhaps Platner will drop out and endorse David Costello [View all] pat_k Jul 6 OP

Why didn't Schumer endorse him over Mills? leftstreet Jul 6 #1

IDK, but the party goes with incumbents, and a governor is an incumbent of sorts. pat_k Jul 6 #4

I wish RandySF Jul 6 #2

We have a lot of good options here, but it depends on GPV Jul 6 #3

A lot of options? Really? BannonsLiver Jul 6 #19

Troy Jackson, Shenna Bellows, Nirav Shah, Jordan Wood, and David Costello GPV Jul 7 #23

Collins is probably doing cartwheels across her office right now. BannonsLiver Jul 7 #24

She was never that likely to lose, anyway. Never is. GPV Jul 7 #25

Troy Jackson campaigned alongside Platner after the first NYT story broke. lapucelle Jul 7 #26

Thanks for this info mcar Jul 7 #32

I still think... 2naSalit Jul 6 #5

He gained slightly when Mills dropped out. Wiz Imp Jul 6 #6

Costello and Platner have similar progressive agendas. pat_k Jul 6 #16

Why would Costello want his endorsement obamanut2012 Jul 6 #8

Should he have a preference, it would be good to express it. pat_k Jul 6 #13

I found a web stie I think is Maine's laws. He'd need to drop out before 5:00 pm next Monday. rogue emissary Jul 6 #12

I just hope Mainers just embrace the idea that they can't put Republicans in charge, shrug it off and go with Mills. RoeVWade Jul 6 #15

Yes. If he drops out, get behind whoever the party picks pat_k Jul 6 #18

Mills finished 2nd Boo1 Jul 6 #20

Not necessarily. pat_k Jul 6 #21

Who would want Planters endorsement Boo1 Jul 6 #22

Who's on first? Jersey Devil Jul 7 #27

I do not think he would want a rapists endorsement. boston bean Jul 7 #28

Delete - misplaced pat_k Jul 7 #29

Anyone know if Jared Golden is an option? displacedvermoter Jul 7 #31
