WATCH: Dems stand by Maine nominee hit with report he fathered children with his second cousin

Democratic senators continue to support Maine Senate nominee Troy Jackson despite a report claiming he fathered two children with his second cousin, Lana Pelletier. Platner, who replaced former candidate Graham Platner on the ballot after scandal, was forced out due to misconduct claims. Many senators, including Angela Alsobrooks and Chris Van Hollen, denied knowledge of the report while emphasizing the necessity for Democrats to win swing state races.
