@cbsnews: Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) told reporters that she did not think that Democrats are ignoring the controversies surrounding Democrat Graham Platner, who is seeking to take on incumbent GOP Sen. Susan Collins in Maine despite his recent string of scandals. “I think that this is, frankly, an election for the people of Maine,” Ocasio-Cortez said. “Their results and the ways that they turn out today, I think, will speak for themselves and their preferences.” #maine #democrats #primary #election
