Elizabeth Warren Endorses Graham Platner

Outlets agree Warren endorsed Graham Platner in Maine’s Democratic Senate primary, where he is competing with Janet Mills for the Democratic nomination. Center outlets mostly place the endorsement in the primary context, though some also note the tattoo controversy and Warren’s earlier criticism of Pete Hegseth. Right-leaning outlets make that comparison central, presenting the endorsement as inconsistent with her earlier criticism.
