Graham Platner, the Democratic candidate for Senate in Maine, thanked Gov. Janet Mills in his speech, saying she had dedicated a “lifetime of service” to the state and that he was “eternally grateful” to her. Mills, a Democrat, also ran for Senate, but Platner drove her out of the race by the end of April. Addressing anyone who felt “let down” or “disappointed” after the primary, he said, “It is my job to earn your trust, faith and support.”
