Governor Janet Mills has not yet formally withdrawn from the Democratic US Senate primary, which is less than 70 days before the June 9 primary. Her name remains on the ballot, and votes for her would count unless she files a notice to withdraw. Mills' suspension follows her struggle to raise funds and compete with front runner Graham Platner. Democrats hope Platner's momentum will help oust longtime US Senator Susan Collins. The conversation also touches on the broader political landscape, criticizing the dominance of one party in Maine and the unrealistic expectations of utopian ideals in politics.
