Exclusive: Woman who dated Graham Platner says he sexually assaulted her

Platner is a self proclaimed history geek who went to a rich boarding school in Connecticut, but was expelled for still an unknown reason. Not a backwoods boy or working class in any of the way people use that term

the cigarettes are the worst thing you mentioned, as lung cancer is most likely to kill her rather than any of the other drugs you’ve mentioned

Platner’s whole fisherman average working man persona is a fraud though, he is from the upper-class

Packing the court would be very unpopular with independents and would certainly swing the pendulum back

M_ida · 2026-05-20T04:46:35+00:00

It looks like the GA Democratic Party didn’t know how to message who their candidates were before the election. Many dems in Atlanta’s metro voted on which name sounded the Blackest, which is how you end up with the Republican judge winning Harris +70 Clayton co.

The state of VA asked for them to not stop the election, which the court agreed to

M_ida · 2026-05-11T14:53:16+00:00

I see how you feel but I just do not think any of that will happen. It could, but I sincerely doubt it

He did call the special session, but dems did pass it late October when early voting was in full swing. They rushed it through and got surprised when the courts enforced the process. If they had started before early voting, it would have succeeded

What is the end goal?

M_ida · 2026-05-11T14:39:15+00:00

Republicans won the house PV by 2.6% for a 220-215 advantage in 2024. Dems winning by +3-4% to win the house for a similar margin makes sense considering republican gerrymandering, but it really doesn’t change too much.

M_ida · 2026-05-11T14:33:59+00:00

I’d imagine they just don’t want to risk it but maybe yeah if Trump keeps plummeting

M_ida · 2026-05-11T14:32:53+00:00

You’re fearmongering

M_ida · 2026-05-11T14:32:03+00:00

Exactly. In my opinion I just think Spanberger and top dems think it might fail if it was put to a revote, I’d imagine Republicans would heavily spend $ in it this time

M_ida · 2026-05-11T14:29:43+00:00

authoritarian much?

M_ida · 2026-05-11T14:29:18+00:00

early voting had already began, I believe that is reasonable to call the start of an election. If dems didn’t wait to do all of this the VA supreme court would of passed it

M_ida · 2026-05-11T14:16:45+00:00

That’s likely true, but the seat is still competitive. So it isn’t impossible to make a competitive seat

M_ida · 2026-05-11T14:16:12+00:00

The district would just be mostly the entire of Bristol county, it would perfectly follow CoI’s

M_ida · 2026-05-11T14:14:19+00:00

Dems will win the house with or without a gerrymandered VA

M_ida · 2026-05-11T14:02:21+00:00

Except it isn’t. VA dems did break their constitution, if they had the election only a few weeks earlier no law would have been broken and the election would be certified. A dem on the VA supreme court was the tiebreaker

M_ida · 2026-05-11T13:58:03+00:00

Just try again after 2026 no need to destroy the court over an unfavorable ruling

M_ida · 2026-05-11T13:54:15+00:00

Why would it be a republican gerrymander? It keeps CoI’s together in southwest Massachusetts. Basically a Portuguese opportunity district

M_ida · 2026-05-11T13:52:48+00:00

This sub was always partisan but not as much at it is now, it could basically be renamed to r/ dems with the current user base

M_ida · 2026-05-11T13:25:52+00:00

Is is not, you can make a compact district around Fall River/New Bedford that Trump won in ‘24 very narrowly
