Live results: Progressives seek another upset in Hawaii's congressional races
Hawaiian voters go to the polls today to select the Democratic and Republican candidates in the Aloha State's congressional races this November. Both Democratic incumbents are seeking reelection, but one faces a progressive challenger who's hoping left-wing candidates' success across the country this year comes to the Aloha State. Meanwhile, Republicans already have presumptive nominees...
Hawaiian voters are heading to the polls for primaries in the state's congressional races. In the 1st District, which includes Honolulu and parts of Oʻahu, incumbent Rep. Ed Case is facing a challenge from state Sen. Jarrett Keohokalole. Keohokalole, 42, has stated that he believes it's time for change in the district, citing Case's vote for the SAVE America Act as a reason.
Case, 73, has represented the 1st District since 2019 and previously represented the 2nd District from 2002 to 2007. He argues that seniority matters in the House, giving him more influence and experience to get things done. According to CBS News, Democratic incumbents in other states have been ousted by primary challengers this year.
In the Republican primary, Adriel Lam is running unopposed for the nomination. The winners of Saturday's primaries are likely to win in November, given Hawaii's heavily Democratic leanings.
