RGA Statement on the Hawaii Gubernatorial Primary
News Release from RGA, August 10, 2014
WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Republican Governors Association issued the following statement on the outcome of the Hawaii gubernatorial primary election:
“Duke Aiona has a vision for Hawaii’s future and knows the state can do better,” said RGA Chairman Chris Christie. “A tested leader with years of experience serving Hawaii, Aiona has a strong record of accomplishment to build on. He is prepared to restore accountability in state government and preserve the Aloha State’s tradition as a place where opportunity and prosperity are available to all. The Republican Governors Association is proud to support Duke Aiona for governor.”
“David Ige may have beat out Governor Abercrombie tonight, but his far-left approach would only take Hawaii further in the wrong direction,” said RGA Executive Director Phil Cox. “After four years of Abercrombie’s weak leadership and poor stewardship of taxpayer dollars, the last thing the state needs is another tax-and-spend liberal in the statehouse. It’s time for a big change in Hawaii and Duke Aiona will deliver that change.”
