In recent elections, Honolulu county has been the most Republican in Hawaii. The other smaller islands  almost always vote pretty much the same, while Honolulu is almost always several points more Republican and is a noticeable outlier. Bush almost won it in 2004 and in 2008 and 2012 it was the only Island where Obama didn't break 70%.

This goes against the usual US trend where urban areas are less Republican than nearby rural areas. Any explanations?
