Re: Platner. Maine pays tuition to John Bapst for kids in towns with no high school. Whether or not that applied to Platner when he was in HS, I don't know.

I've never heard of the podcast, but if you're up for it, take a listen: Death, Sex & Money host Anna Sale sat down with [Platner] on Feb. 23 before the U.S. and Israeli military strikes on Iran. Watch here: I don't see how he can be effective if he can't get along with other Dems.
