Here you go:Ashley Webb – a Democrat contender to replace Graham Platner for U.S. Senate:"I don't want to hurt anybody, I just want to use the bathroom…if they want me to use the men's room I will but I don't want to be assaulted." pic.twitter.com/ckiNs08hi9— RNC Research (@RNCResearch) July 17, 2026 This is Ashley’s campaign message, from the Maine Dems website:“My campaign, “Ashley Webb: Take No Prisoners,” is run the way I’ve run every fight in my life: independently, transparently, and without waiting for permission from people who’ve never had to navigate the systems I have. I serve as both candidate and treasurer of my own committee because I believe accountability starts at home.Grassroots movements don’t survive on enthusiasm alone – they survive When the people leading them keep listening after the excitement of a launch fades. That’s my commitment: I will keep showing up in Farmington, in Skowhegan, in every town that federal infrastructure investment has bypassed for decades. I will keep pushing for a healthcare system that treats patients as partners in their own care instead of obstacles to a fifteen-minute visit. I will keep the same relentless, detail-driven approach I’ve used for years fighting for my own medical records and accountability, and apply it to fighting for every Mainer the system has failed. ]As an openly trans and intersex woman, I know what it means to be told to wait, to be quieter, to let someone else speak for you. I won’t do that in this campaign, and I won’t do it in the Senate. No Mainer – rural or urban, Democrat, Republican, or unenrolled – should have to fight this hard just to be heard by the people meant to represent them.Obama already seems like a distant memory.Democrats are not in Kansas anymore, Toto.The post Meet Ashley Webb – One of the Democrats Running to Replace Graham Platner as the Senate Candidate in Maine (VIDEO) appeared first on The Gateway Pundit.
