Maine Democrats Defy Trend, Hold Onto Embattled Rep. Platner Amid Party Infighting

California Democrats have lost their congressional candidate Katie Porter in Tuesday's primary election, which sets up a runoff for the state's governor's race in November. Meanwhile, Maine Democrats have retained their incumbent Rep. Chellie Platner after she won her primary with 73% of the vote. The strong showing by Platner highlights the party's conservative leanings in the state. Platner will now face Republican challenger Michael Millay in the general election.
