“In a stunning reversal of political fortunes, Gov. David Ige (D) brushed off opposition from much of Hawaii’s Democratic establishment Saturday on his way to defeating his top rival, Rep. Colleen Hanabusa (D),” the Honolulu Star Advertiser reports.
“Ige staged a dramatic turnaround in a re-election effort that was in deep trouble just six months ago, but ended with Hanabusa conceding the race in a speech shortly before 10:30 p.m.”
ige will face House Minority Leader Rep. Andria Tupola (R) in the general election.
