Susan Collins's Senate reelection odds improve after Platner's exit

Graham Platner's withdrawal removes a Democratic challenger from Maine's Senate race, reducing competition for Republican incumbent Susan Collins. Collins, a moderate Republican, has maintained steady polling leads against Platner, and his exit shifts the balance further in her favor. Analysts project her reelection odds will rise by at least 8-12 percentage points following the news.
