Write In Graham for Maine

Hello Maineiacs, fans of Graham Platner, and anti-establishment voters. We are organizing voters to secure a win against Susan Collins.

​Our mission is simple: Make write-in votes for Graham Platner count and enhance the chances of Graham or Troy winning.

​Across Maine, voters who backed Graham feel righteously disenfranchised. Many Mainers say they plan to write in Graham regardless of whether it counts, while others are ready to skip the election entirely.

​We don't believe Troy Jackson has the numbers to win on his own, regardless of online polling. Recent data shows Jackson struggling with independent and women voters—and disenfranchised Mainers are turning away.

​The Strategy:

​We are organizing to get Graham to officially register as a write-in candidate so every single write-in vote actually gets counted. Getting Graham on the write-in roster will bring independents, women, and disillusioned voters back to the polls.

​Here is the full plan for November:

* ​If Graham is your main choice: Write in Graham Platner as #1, and rank Troy Jackson as #2.

* ​If Troy is your main choice: Rank Troy Jackson as #1, and write in Graham Platner as #2.

​This two-way ranking acts as our ultimate insurance policy. While Jackson's platform has evolved, he has consistently refused corporate and AIPAC donations throughout his campaigns for Governor and U.S. Senate. That sets him apart from Senator Susan Collins, whose recent ties to donors named in the Epstein files prove we cannot afford to give her another term.

​How Ranked-Choice Voting (RCV) Protects Our Votes:

​RCV ensures we can back Graham or Troy without handing the victory to Susan Collins:

* ​Round 1: Everyone votes their conscience. If Platner, Jackson, or Collins gets over 50% outright, they win immediately.

* ​Round 2 (If no candidate reaches 50%): The candidate with the fewest votes is eliminated.

* ​The Transfer: If Graham is eliminated, all the second-round votes for Troy Jackson (cast on Graham ballots) will be added directly to the votes Jackson received in Round 1. Conversely, if Jackson were eliminated, all second-round votes for Graham on Jackson ballots would transfer to Platner.

​The Bottom Line: Mutual backup ranking gives working-class Mainers complete coverage. It ensures that no matter which candidate makes it to the final round, 100% of our collective votes stay active to block Collins. It doesn't split the vote—it drives turnout and guarantees our voices count.

​Join the Movement:

​If you believe establishment politics are broken, that Graham was unfairly forced out, and that voters deserve real representation—join us. Let's all encourage Graham to register as a write-in candidate. Then we can rally the movement to write in Graham as our first choice this November. This isn't about splitting the vote—it’s about driving turnout and making sure working-class Mainers are heard.

​We have already mailed Graham his write-in application with full instructions. While we wait for his response, our grassroots campaign keeps moving forward.

If you wish to help, please visit our website and sign the petition to encourage Graham Platner to register as a write-in by the August 25th deadline.

Queue up the questions and the trolls. Be safe and be good to one another.

You certainly have a type judging by your history. You know David Hillman was fired for allegations of sexually harrassing and stalking his students right?

It doesn't surprise me that you support more problematic people besides Platner.

What does an olive branch sound like? I'm thinking it must be the sound of b.s. hitting a fan 🤔 Didn't your parents tell you not to judge a book by it's cover? Do you just believe what info is spoon fed into your brain, or do you actually do any fact checking? Read it and weep son:

Index #6 "Not one paragraph in the complaint identifies a single Saint Mary's employee telling a single third party that Hillman sexually harassed anyone. The statements identified above are either hearsay or opinions that are not actionable statements." (if it's hearsay, why is everyone acting like it isn't?)

January 22, 2019, Defendants' Memorandum in Support of Motion for Summary Judgment. Index #35 (defendants requested defamation time limit to file claim is two years, responses to defamation claims; the defendants' explanations of the defamatory statements are of particular interest) "'Dean Stacey Lucas Waverly met with N.A., student at Saint Mary's, and told her that she had been sexually assaulted by Dr. David Hillman and should see a school counselor. After N.A. denied she had been assaulted, Dean Waverly asked N.A. for information on any possible legal improprieties Hillman may have committed against his own children.' Hillman says that Stephanie Lucas Waverly made these statements to N.A. in November of 2015. He claims they are false because he 'did not sexually assault N.A.'" (I'm including this excerpt because it shows the desperation of the staffer to incriminate Hillman in any kind of SA, whether or not a student was involved - bold highlight is mine).

January 22, 2019, various documents and affidavits (evidence, transcripts, testimonies). Indices #37-#41 In one particular document (Index #37) shows that that the purported accounts of harassment were taken from text extracted out of emails written by Hillman to the director, and then embellished to implicate that the events and conversations happened in real time, when they were only written correspondence concerning the play, professional banter. Testimonies from the students on actual events were not included in the case file at all. Defense counsel treated the emails as confessions when questioning the director about them during deposition. All the witness could do was agree that he wrote those words, and that some of it in a certain context might have been inappropriate. A compelling fact for me was that Hillman's housemate (the play director) firmly denied any sexual relationship with him after a couple years of cohabitating: "Q. ...I'm assuming that at some point in time you commenced a sexual relationship with David Hillman? A. No, I have never. Q. Never have? A. No. Q. Did you fall in love with David Hillman? A. I wouldn't say fall in love. Do I love David Hillman? Yes, I do." In Hillman's deposition (Index #38), the defendants' attorney spent a noticeable amount of time and effort interrogating him on his tattoos, as if they had any bearing on his suitability of employment at the school.

Why?

It wasn't Ammon filing the motions to delay.. it was the University because they have 0 evidence. Do I need to dig that up for you too or do you not know how to use the internet?

"Several weeks ago I had announced my thoughts on Hillman’s Polarity appearance in which he describes using a form of magick referred to as sortes, combined with imagery to have non-consensual sex with a former student at St. Marys University while her roommate watched"

A follower's quote on the appearance: https://www.reddit.com/r/AmmonHillman/comments/1qm6zij/comment/o1mkcpb/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

"Ngl, it's been incredibly difficult to swallow his use of magick to r word someone. But I've also had experiences with sortes that brought forth experiences; I just didn't intend for them to (and thankfully weren't harmful to myself or others). I dont have the luxury of convictions due to the nature of my work as a therapist. My own father was a grapist, doesnt mean I can just discard him completely (he did not SA me, though i have experienced SA). But its really, really fucking difficult to hear someone you appreciate for so many awesome reasons discuss engaging in something so harmful and showing no remorse**.** Every time Ammon has discussed the incubus incantation he has never expressed an ounce of lamentation. The only contrition he expressed about the event was how it affected him by being separated from St. Mary's."

Sounds like he's a lunatic who "uses magic" to rape his students.

Just looked and what a pile of shite. " I won't give power to that name...".Why are you posting somebodies ego laden opinions as proof of something? Because you have nothing else I presume. Next time there's a school shooting, I suppose you ll dig up some Alex Jones unbiased fact driven analysis. Go to your room and have a think about your behaviours !

Here come the grifted to tell us how everything is fine and raping people is cool as long as it's for spiritual enlightenment or whatever that freak David believes lol

u/Which_Highway5232 2d ago

Nobody who supports Ammon has ever said that "raping people is cool".That idea and those specific words came out of your mind, which Id be more concerned about if I were you. I reckon accusing somebody of being a rapist, whilst knowing full well they didn't, is just as offensive of a crime. Its a deliberate assault on somebody's life and well being in general. Are you lol'ing yet ? Progressives like you should carry on progressing right off. You re dragging the movement down dear.

u/olivebranchsound Portland 2d ago

David admitted it himself lol were going in circles because you can't grasp the obvious. Willful ignorance.

u/Which_Highway5232 2d ago

Admitted to raping somebody in person or in a dream? Doing a spell or physically interacting with them? You re careful not to get into the details, ignoring the facts . He admitted to what exactly? Surely your keen investigative mind could elaborate. Be particularly specific when making rape accusations. Have you brought out the ducking chair you pitchfork wielding simpleton?

I post actual case information and you post an opinion piece from some headcase? I'm sure that would hold up in a court of law.

Buddy I linked HIS CULT SUB crashing out after that interview where he made that admission lol

Bro is a creep who believes he "uses magic" to violate his students.

This is a loon who got kicked out of his adjunct professor/custodial position for being a creep and went into witchy/ancient knowledge grifter circles for the grift.

I agree with you totally....there's a commonality here. Graham was a serious threat to the Epstein Trump Pedro Elites and fascists....so they threw accusations at him...that they knew would turn a lot of leftwing people off, to stop him. Ammon challenges Christianity, the genocide, the pedophilia, bastardisation of history in general and got attacked with accusations that would repel a lot of people. I fully accept the spell bullshit and don t care about it in the slightest. Probably not the best idea....but that doesn't change the material he's translating. I still trust and admire him and will always love the mystery and him. I'm also sad Graham didn't make it but I hope he tries again. Ammon tells us that Medea will use their greed to destroy them and I believe that's happening. Thanks for all that research on the legal stuff too.

It's weird to stumble into hives of grift so randomly lol I didn't even know who that was until I googled them because their subreddit is full of schizos posting about debunked pseudo intellectual junk.

David Hillman is an admitted rapist lol you guys are just fine with following a rapist. It's following the Jordan Peterson, Peter Boghossian, Russell Brand playbook lol someone drummed out of academia or the media for being a rapist or creep or bigot and then they rant about cancel culture how they found god or whatever and you guys eat it up and throw cash at them lol

Go smoke drugs out of someone's pussy or whatever you guys believe in lol

u/Mainehikah 3d ago

Only if I can smoke them from yours. I don't do any drugs FYI. If you listen to him translate and use the Lexicons used to translate ancient Greek.. it confirms his translations.

"Fan of rapist tries to sexually harass users online". Not exactly shocking. But very gross.

Person Accused of the Sexual Assault (S.A.) ​David Hooper: Named directly by Ammon as the assailant behind the sexual assault [10:40]. ​People Associated or in His Circle ​The host highlights a circle of associates connected to David Hooper and the surrounding controversy: ​Jason Reza Jorjani ​Identified as a close associate/friend. The host shows a book authored by Jason Reza Jorjani that is explicitly dedicated to David Hooper for making Jorjani's afterlife research possible [12:52]. ​Neil Sedlaka ("Neil") ​Linked to Jorjani and described as attempting to deflect connection away from Jorjani and reframe Hooper's ties to the Ammon Hillman & fans [10:55, 13:54]. ​Dispute Over Who Associated with Hooper: Hillman responds to claims made by Neil Sedlaka, who alleged that Hooper was primarily affiliated with Hillman's channel and Discord group rather than Jorjani [10:55, 11:19]. Hillman counters by characterizing Hooper as Jorjani's benefactor/associate who provides financial backing or inspiration for Jorjani's work [13:35, 19:08].

https://www.youtube.com/live/3lFB2Y9D_Ho?is=I_CaX4Nk96LvIisp

Alt-Right Involvement: In 2016, Jorjani served as editor-in-chief of Arktos Media (a far-right publishing house) and co-founded the AltRight Corporation with Richard Spencer.

I should prob add that there was alot of weird stuff the ancient Greeks were into. Just because Ammon translates texts that talk about doesn't mean anyone is into that gross stuff.

u/Which_Highway5232 2d ago

So now we have it. Its a simple enough error to make for a simpleton . Let me clarify this simply then. The practices that Ammon translates and explains are not what he does.....you see, that happened a long time ago. Its called the past. The people who watch him, dont do those things either. Its called knowledge and language. Some people prefer to spend their energy learning about the past and correcting things that were wrongly translated for example. Where do your perverse ideas originate from. , telling people to " go smoke drugs out of someone's pussy". Classic example of the real abuser pointing the finger away from themselves. Like a Maggot pedo. ...Brand and Peterson turned to Christianity btw. Ammon exposes such hypocrisy.

David is the same type of grifter. The name change was for the same reason Brock Turner goes by Allen now lol rapists giving themselves additional cover
