בעקבות הצלחתו (ונפילתו) של גרהם פלטנר, מועמד להחליפו משנה את דעתו על 'רצח עם'

הערכה

A Maine Senate primary has been reshaped by a sexual assault allegation against the frontrunner, Graham Platner, who denied the accusation. His replacement candidate, Jordan Wood, previously avoided calling Israel's actions genocide but now uses that exact language. The shift suggests that the political calculation around the term has changed in this race, and that the accusation against Platner has opened space for more aggressive rhetoric from his would-be successor.
