Hanabusa Passes on Senate Bid
Rep. Colleen Hanabusa (D-HI) announced she would skip a run for the U.S. Senate and instead seek re-election, Honolulu Civil Beat reports.
“Hanabusa’s decision means the 2012 general election will likely be a rematch with Republican Charles Djou, who announced his candidacy last week. Hanabusa defeated Djou in the November 2010 general election but lost to him in the May 2010 special election that sent Djou to Congress to fill the remainder of Neil Abercrombie’s seat.”
Levi Johnston “Too Busy” to Run for Mayor
