Maine Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner is facing calls to withdraw from the race after an allegation of sexual assault published Monday. Platner called the allegation "categorically false" and said he is "taking the time to reflect on the best path forward." In a Politico report, Jenny Racicot, a former girlfriend, alleged that Platner, while they were dating five years ago, forced her into having sex without her consent after she had repeatedly called for him to stop.
