I would not bet the farm on that. The only ones in hawaii that seem to give a damn about him are angry old white folks, aging leftists.

The local, more brown people do not seem to care at all, from the lack of bumper stickers seen. Spotting stickers and checking who/what was in the car was most illuminating last two elections. Old, lesbian, doper types, all white.
