Key races to note...

24 of the candidates* endorsed by the ILWU won their elections in the Primary in August, so their names will not appear on the General Election ballot.

Others in key races, however, such as Mitch Roth running for mayor on the Big Island and Rick Blangiardi running for mayor on Oahu, still need our support!

Wins for our endorsed candidates’ matter; the people in office make the decisions that directly affect our lives.
