DJOU TOO?… Charles Djou Tied in Hawaii!
Republican Charles Djou has climbed 15 points in the polls since January and is now tied in the deep blue state!
This would (will) be another major upset.
Wow! The latest poll has popular Republican Charles Djou tied in the Hawaii special congressional election.
KITV reported:
A recent poll shows Republican Charles Djou is tied with Democrat Ed Case for the lead in Oahu’s special congressional election, according to The Atlantic magazine.
The poll, which The Atlantic said was conducted by the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, puts Democrat Colleen Hanabusa in third place, just a few points behind Djou and Case.
In January, when KITV4 and the Honolulu Star-Bulletin conducted the last poll that went public, Case was the clear leader. The former congressman had 37 percent of the vote, followed by Senate President Hanabusa in second place with close to 25 percent. Councilman Djou, a Republican, trailed in third with 17 percent of the vote.
But according to a more recent poll reported by Atlantic magazine, Case and Djou are now tied with 32 percent of the vote, with Hanabusa in third place at 27 percent. About nine percent of the respondents were undecided, Atlantic reported, citing a Democratic source who’d seen results of a Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee poll.
Djou is elated with the results, saying, “Momentum has clearly shifted in favor of our campaign and this is certainly something that I’m very excited about.”
Djou is holding a money wave on April 21.

Miracles can happen. Remember 1980?

Don’t get your hopes up too high…Hawaii is a Welfare state and more than half the population thinks they are entitled to anything and everything.
Status quo will remain in the 50th state.
pm commented:
Thanks, Jim, for reporting this.
Djou has a really good chance. The Dems are split between Case and Hanabusa — the machine/union backing Hanabusa. She’d be really reliable for them.
But they’re definitely spending money going after Djou for either Dem. He’s well-respected — a fiscal conservative and a voice of sanity in this state.
Djou would love any donations to help him win this — every little bit helps.
He’d be GREAT in Washington. Help us make it happen!! (Election in May.)
Pagar commented:
I would think that the so called “welfare states”
citizens would be even more interested in not having the federal government forcing doctors out of practice.What good is having medicare that you can’t get because there are no doctors.

Case, Steve Case’s cousin. Steve Case, the megabillionaire AOL founder, the largest landowner in Hawaii.
Wonder why Democrat politicos who want so much to “help” the poor are always the megarich who had made their bucks before the little small business guys had a chance to challenge them.
Militant Conservative commented:
Hawaii, do you feal a tsunami coming on or do you still have your head in the sand???? This is a long over due ass whuppin for the Dem’s.
powder is dry.

Thank you, Redeye.

davidt commented:
I will be voting for Djou here in Honolulu in May, and he has a very good chance to win the special election for district 1. If he does win the special, he’ll have his hands full running against one Dem after their primary. Hopefully Case and Hanabusa will do irreparable damage to each other in the Dem primary to let Djou retain the seat.
Marsh commented:
Wow. That old white male Republican has some kind of serious skin disease. I hope Obamacare can cure him.
pm commented:
davidt is WRONG.
If Djou wins this race – a special election, in which ballots are mailed and must be returned by May 22nd – he will go to Washington.
No other contest will be held.
So, if you want to help him, he could use your donations now.
davidt — are you a phony?
pm commented:
davidt is full of bull.
Djou is a City Councilman. This isn’t to “retain his seat” — it’s to replace the far Leftie, friend of BO,Sr., Neil Abercrombie. (Please, dear Lord, don’t let him be our next Governor.)
Hiram Fong, in the 60′s and 70′s in the Senate — and Patricia Saiki in the House from ’86 to ’90 — are the only Republicans I can think of who’ve been elected to serve since statehood.
This would be a big win and another big message to the Dems that their ways are all wrong for America.
Santa Malia commented:
pm: I think you misunderstood davidt…I live in Honolulu, will definately vote for Djou -he has been awesome here fiscally.
This is a winner take all election that is true BUT in 6 short months, there will be a general election. The dems WILL have a primary and run against Djou…The campaign will of course begin immediately…
I’m sure davidt meant for Djou to “retain his seat” that he will hopefully take May 22…The dems are hopefull that if Djou wins now he will not win a two way race…But Hawaii has a history of NEVER voting out an incumbent..and if any district will support him – Dist 1 (Honolulu) will…So we must get him in there to “retain” the seat in November…
I’m sure you didn’t mean to call davidt names, but he is correct – and I didn’t hear him say not to support Djou…GO Djou! Aloha
