Peter Hamby is joined by Leigh Ann Caldwell to break down the latest reporting, why support for Platner is rapidly collapsing, what Democrats could do before Maine's July 13 ballot deadline, and who could replace him if he drops out. They also discuss exclusive long-term voter research tracking the same Americans since the 2024 election, revealing why even many Trump voters have grown frustrated with the direction of the country.
