A Democrat running for the US Senate in Maine is withdrawing from the race. The candidate, Graham Platner, faces an allegation of sexual assault. His exit from the race may cause problems for Democrats trying to regain power in Washington.

Further details about the situation are available from KPRC 2 Houston, including a video statement from Platner.
