Maine Senate member Graham Platner opened up about the allegations of second sex

Former U.S. Senate candidate Graham Platner has been hit with a second set of explosive allegations of sexual misconduct nearly 24 hours after the rape allegations — all before a campaign deadline.

In a new report published by The Washington Post, the Maine candidate is accused of removing condoms during sex with his ex-girlfriend Lyndsey Fifield after apparently ordering her to wear them.

“He would take out the condoms,” she told the Washington Post. “He would do it in a sneaky way. He wouldn’t tell me.”

Fifield, 41, previously accused Platner of misbehavior during their relationship, saying that he sometimes grabbed her hard enough to leave marks on her body and that at one point he twisted his arm around her back, pushed her into a room and closed the door until she “shut up.”

Those concerns were largely dismissed by Platner’s supporters, who described Fifield, who worked at The Heritage Foundation, as an activist.

“I faced him in the middle and behind [sex] because he knew I wasn’t on birth control and how dangerous that was,” he told the Post, saying Fifield made the allegations in a previous interview with the agency but off the record.

“He was being, like, cool about it, like ‘Oh sneaky me,'” she said, according to the report.

In a statement to The Washington Post, Platner’s campaign reportedly called Fifield’s latest allegations “false and politically motivated.”

Platner is running to unseat Maine Republican Sen. Susan Collins.

On Monday, an oyster farmer, whose campaign has been plagued by scandal since last year, was accused of raping another woman.

PLATNER’S LATEST CLERK IS DEMANDING THE HEAD OF A REALLY ‘BLACK’ DEMOCRATIC SENATOR.

Jenny Racicot, 41, told Politico that Platner entered her home drunk while they were dating and in 2021 raped her. She says he burst into her after she repeatedly told him to stop.

“I remember him grabbing my waist and really forcing me,” Racicot told the outlet, which he said happened when Platner was “almost drunk” in Washington, DC.

Platner flatly denied those allegations, in a video released shortly after the Politico story was published.

He said his campaign is taking time to assess the steps to be taken as the race deadline is closely watched.

Platner must withdraw from the race by 5 p.m. July 13 if another Democratic candidate, chosen by the party, will take his place before the November general election.

Monday evening and into Tuesday, dozens of former supporters abandoned their endorsement of Platner and called him out of the race, including progressives Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., and Bernie Sanders, Vt., two of his most ardent supporters.

“Now more than ever we need leaders in Washington who reflect our values. There will be no tolerance for sexual harassment,” Warren said in a statement Monday night.

“Working families are counting on Democrats to win the Maine Senate election to stabilize our economy and hold Donald Trump accountable. With so much at stake, the best way forward is for Graham Platner to step aside as the Democratic nominee and address these serious allegations outside of this Senate race.”

“I have spoken with Graham Platner about the best way forward for Maine,” Sanders said in a statement Tuesday. “Because of these very serious allegations, I have recommended that he resign.”
