Kelly Kitashima Joins GOP Senate Race | Honolulu News
Description
Hawaii’s Republican Party just picked Kelly Kitashima to run for State Senate in District 18 — a key Oahu swing district covering Mililani, Waipahu, and more — following the retirement of longtime Sen. Michelle Kidani. A familiar face in local politics, Kitashima previously ran for Honolulu City Council twice and brings over two decades of executive experience. Chair Shirlene Ostrov praised her as a mom and Oahu native perfectly suited to lead. Meanwhile, Gov. Josh Green appointed Danielle Bass to temporarily fill the seat until November’s general election, setting up an intriguing political showdown in District 18.
