HAWAI'I GOP CHAIRMAN’S REMARKS ON REPUBLICAN VICTORIES IN VIRGINIA AND NEW JERSEY

Hawai'i Republican Party Chairman Jonah Ka'auwai shares his thoughts on tonight’s Republican victories in gubernatorial races in Virginia and New Jersey:

“The Republican Party’s overwhelming victory in Virginia and New Jersey is a blow to President Obama and the Democrat Party.  It sends a message that America has had enough of more government spending, higher taxes and bigger government.  The people of this great country are saying no more broken promises and no more change for the sake of change.

"The Hawai'i Democrat Party, who has proven to be ineffective for the people of Hawai'i, should learn from Democrats across the country. These victories prove traditionally Democrat states like Hawai'i can and will vote for Republicans.”

Chairman Ka'auwai will have a press conference tomorrow morning where he will give further details of the night’s elections and their implications on Hawai'i’s 2010 elections.
