Rhode Island governor's races always are interesting. There's a huge difference between national and statewide politics there, like in Kentucky.

The Democratic Party in Rhode Island is strange, it seems like a lot of "Republicans" run as Democrats, so the state-wide party is a little more conservative than one would think.

Same as in Hawaii.

By the way, would Fung be the first Asian-American Governor in New England?

Yeah that's what I always thought too. But since the conservatives are all part of the Democratic Party, why do Fung and Aiona even have a prayer?

To be fair, it's not like Hawaii Democrats put up Mike Gabbard or Ed Case. There's a pretty big difference between Aiona and Ige (Ige isn't as progressive as Abercrombie, but is still Liberal).

Normally alot of the DINOs are found in the State Legislature; Donna Mercado Kim is a good example of one.

I'd say the Republicans in Hawaii are worse off than the ones in Rhode Island, too.
