Does anyone have any idea what this Ige character believes in? No one here in Hawaii seems to know anything about him.
He's your standard rank and file Democrat. I think he supported Gay Marriage before it became "cool" to do so. He's a budget wonk, often wanting to spend more on social programs than Abercrombie.
Nothing that notable though.
We shall see. The impression I get from talking to people (many of which are well-connected in the local Democratic party) is that he only won the primary because he wasn't Abercrombie and the general election because of the D next to his name. No one seems to know anything about him. I watched some of his tv interviews and he never gives a proper answer to any question (which is rather typical for a Hawaii politician) and he's not particularly articulate either. I honestly liked Aiona more (for the record I didn't vote this time).
