Aloha Mai Kākou:

As we enter the final weeks of this very important election cycle, I want to thank you all for your continued support and effort in bringing balance to government.

We must elect representatives that are willing to work with people from any party to find solutions, now just their own. Two candidates, Mazie Hirono and Colleen Hanabusa, have shown us exactly what we do not need -- hyper-partisanship like they displayed in this past Monday night’s televised debates.

Both of them, who also spoke from the same script and claimed that you can't vote for their opponents Governor Linda Lingle and Congressman Charles Djou simply because they are supporting Mitt Romney for President. They also claimed that Lingle and Djou would oust Senator Dan Inouye from his chairmanship of the Appropriations Committee and provide the Republicans with a majority in Congress. They failed to acknowledge that they are incumbents and also failed to mention who squandered their opportunity to be a part of the solution, instead of the problem, in Washington DC.

I ask you, in these last couple of weeks before the General Election, will you join me in supporting the following candidates who will bring bi-partisanship and balance to government? Will you support these candidates who will put the people of Hawaii first, not politics?

Kimberly Pine is seeking your support for Council District 1 of the City and County of Honolulu (Makakilo, Kapolei, Ewa Beach, Nanakuli, Waianae).

Aloha ke Akua,

Duke Aiona
