I can’t believe how badly this guy lost!

Has any incumbent anywhere ever lost a primary by such a landslide?

The people have spoken and they said: WE HATE YOU! GET OUT!

Abercrombie was in Congress forever before he came back to the islands. He was the hippy left wing liberal yes man for the party at that time. Hawaii took him in with open arms, and now, well , maybe he wasn’t LEFT enough for the idiots that live here.

Maybe Bennett in Utah but his was under a different system I think. He got pushed to third or fourth. Mike Lee and the other guy then ran.

I asked the same question, both of us forgot the obvious one.

Frank Murkwowsi in Alaska in 2006 came in THIRD with just 19% to 50.6% for Palin and 30% for another guy.

Anyway, the 2 outstanding precincts in the state are supposed to vote on Friday but rat Senate challenger Colleen Hanabusa is suing to prevent that, says too many people are still without power and water and won’t be able to make it to the polls. According to what I’ve read, the area favors her opponent, the appointed White incumbent Schatz, and will only increase his lead, so I don’t know what she’s doing.

The rat Senate drama would be delcious, if we had a strong GOP candidate, which we don’t.

The Governorship is another story, Duke Aiona (R) leads in the polls over Ige.
