only count against her is she is a dim
Given this bill she’s introduced, it appears she’s a little less affected than most.
When running for office in HI, there is no choice. Rs never, ever get elected. They did have an R governor a while ago but she was a total liberal.
I have a feeling Gabbard’s liberal views (she voices some) will evolve over time. She’s in her mid-30s and comes from a conservative family.
She’s also very liberal on social issues and the environment.
Maybe she ran as a dim to get elected.
