Elizabeth Warren plans to hold a rally for Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner on Saturday, less than two months before the Democratic primary. The campaign says Warren will discuss taking on billionaires and Wall Street and Platner’s plans to fight for workers.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren will hold a rally for Graham Platner on Saturday, his campaign said. A campaign spokesperson said Warren plans to discuss taking on billionaires and Wall Street, along with Platner’s plans to “fight the system that is rigged against workers.” The rally is scheduled to begin at 6:30 p.m.; its location has not yet been announced.
Warren endorsed Platner in March, while Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer supports Platner’s Democratic primary opponent, Gov. Janet Mills. The primary is scheduled for June 9. The article reports that Platner has led in most independent polling and has held more than 50 town hall rallies since entering the race.

6 OUTLETSCenter and right-leaning outlets report that Platner took part in a campaign rally in Portland. Left-leaning outlets present Platner's primary strength as evidence that voters are moving past his tattoo and old online posts. Center outlets cover his campaign, Warren's planned rally with him, and Janet Mills's criticism over age-related remarks alongside his campaign's denial. Right-leaning outlets cast the rally gesture as a test of whether media scrutinize Democrats and Republicans equally, while their accounts differ in how they characterize the gesture.
