New Scandal for Graham Platner: Ex-Girlfriend Accuses Him of Stealthing

Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner is facing fresh allegations of sexual misconduct. A second ex-girlfriend, Lyndsey Fifield, claims he repeatedly removed condoms during sex without her knowledge or consent, despite knowing she wasn't using birth control, according to the Washington Post.

Fifield said she later confronted Platner about the alleged incidents. A friend of hers told the Post she remembered Fifield being upset over his behavior. The new accusations come just one day after another ex-girlfriend, Jenny Racicot, accused Platner of sexual assault.

Platner has denied all allegations. His campaign called them a coordinated effort by "out-of-state establishment operatives" to derail his Senate bid, noting that Maine's ballot deadline is just a week away.

The controversy spilled onto "The View" on Tuesday, where Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene clashed with the hosts over the scandal. This has brought even more attention to Platner's situation.

As the allegations pile up, pressure on Platner's campaign continues to grow. If proven true, they could seriously damage his chances in the upcoming election. For now, Platner maintains his innocence, and his team is framing the accusations as a political attack.

The story of Graham Platner highlights how sexual misconduct allegations can impact a political career, especially close to an election. The question remains whether he can clear his name or if the scandal will force him out of the race.
