"Platner stated, 'I've never gotten a phone call. Like, no one's ever reached out. I've never talked to anybody in leadership. I've like, no one has ever been interested in ever which is, like, kind of baffling.'"
"'They're lost, dude. They're lost,' Stewart remarked, emphasizing the disconnect between the DNC and candidates who are performing well in polls."
"'The thing that bothers me the most isn't like I'm not asking for you to be my friend. I'm just, but you should be curious because I'm polling 40 points ahead,' Platner expressed."
Jon Stewart and Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner expressed frustration with the Democratic National Committee's lack of engagement with candidates. Platner, who is leading in polls for the Senate seat, noted he has received no communication from the DNC or the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee. Despite support from individual senators, he finds it baffling that party leadership has shown no interest in his campaign. Stewart echoed this sentiment, stating that the DNC appears lost in its approach to candidates like Platner.
