🇺🇸⚡- Interestingly, Morris Katz, a close advisor to NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani, and who has worked with multiple left-wing populist campaigns, is advising Graham Platner to remain in the race, according to the New York Post.

Katz, according to Platner’s account, approached and selected Platner to run for the Maine seat, as they were looking for working-class, disgruntled veterans to run against Susan Collins.

Katz likely wishes to see the Graham Platner project through and ascertain the electoral viability of Democratic candidates after scandals emerge, as the GOP has done with President Trump.
