Message to Supporters from Djou Campaign      June 19, 2016

In case you missed it, the reviews of incumbent Mayor Kirk Caldwell's handling of the City rail project are scathing.

• In the Sunday paper the editorial board of the Honolulu Star Advertiser described Caldwell's actions as, "nothing less than abject failure of leadership."  The newspaper characterized Caldwell's decision-making as "political expediency" driven by his re-election campaign.
• Political commentator Richard Borreca remarked the flip-flop double reversal by the mayor on rail shows "Caldwell isn't going into this race with sails filled with a strong wind,"   Borreca even quoted the Speaker of the House, Joe Souki, saying Caldwell's action "screws it up royally."
• Writer Lee Cataluna, perhaps best summed up Caldwell's management of rail by calling it a "belly flop." Cataluna concludes that rail under Caldwell is "absolute proof that no one is in control of this crazy train."

Our community deserves better.  We deserve a leader we can trust.  We need Charles Djou.

Aloha,

Team Djou
