Oct. 21 (UPI) -- Graham Platner hopes to be elected as one of Maine's two U.S.senators and denied allegations that he is a closet Nazi after images of a questionable tattoo became public.
The tattoo appears in a home video recorded by Platner's family and showing him shirtless while singing during his brother's wedding in 2007.
It resembles the Nazi SS death head that is called a Totenkopf and was worn by SS troops and SS members in charge of Nazi death camps during World War II, according to Axios.
"I am not a secret Nazi," he told Tommy Vietor on the "Pod Save America" podcast on Monday.
