Arizona Sen. Ruben Gallego has endorsed Graham Platner, a Democrat who won in a state that went to Donald Trump in 2024, in Maine's U.S. Senate race. Platner is currently running against Maine Gov. Janet Mills for the chance to take on incumbent GOP Sen. Susan Collins. Despite Gallegeo's support for Platner's progressive politics, he has faced criticism for supporting the Laken Riley Act, which required the jailing of undocumented immigrants merely accused of minor crimes. However, recently, Platner reportedly had a tattoo on his chest closely linked with Nazi Germany. The tattoo was removed after news reports surfaced and was covered up with a dog and a Celtic knot.
