The Hawaii gubernatorial and lieutenant gubernatorial election took place on November 4, 2014. Incumbent Neil Abercrombie (D) ran for re-election but lost the Democratic primary against state Sen. David Ige on August 9. The race to replace Abercrombie featured the Democratic ticket of Ige and Lt. Gov. Shan Tsutsui, Republican candidates Duke Aiona and Elwin Ahu, the Libertarian Party ticket of Jeff Davis and Cindy Marlin and Independent Party candidates Mufi Hannemann and Les Chang. Ige and Tsutsui won concurrent four-year terms in the general election.
The race was rated a "toss-up" by The Cook Political Report and Governing, among numerous other political analysts and publications.[1][2] Learn more about developments in this race, including Abercrombie's primary defeat, in the race background section.
The competitive gubernatorial contest was the only race on the November ballot that threatened to shift the partisan balance of power in Hawaii. Going into the 2014 elections, both chambers of the state legislature and the governorship were held by the Democratic Party, making Hawaii a state government trifecta, or a single-party government. The Hawaii House of Representatives and Hawaii State Senate were considered safe Democratic, but if the governor's office turned red, Hawaii would have lost its trifecta status.

A primary election is an election in which registered voters select a candidate that they believe should be a political party's candidate for elected office to run in the general election. They are also used to choose convention delegates and party leaders. Primaries are state-level and local-level elections that take place prior to a general election.
Hawaii utilizes an open primary system, in which registered voters do not have to be members of a party to vote in that party's primary.[3][4]
For information about which offices are nominated via primary election, see this article. The primary took place on August 9.

Race background
Ige defeats Abercrombie
In the Democratic primary election, state Sen. David Ige defeated Gov. Neil Abercrombie.[15][16][17] Prior to this primary, the last governor of Hawaii to lose a re-election campaign was Gov. William Francis Quinn (R) in 1962. Quinn lost to John Anthony Burns (D) in the general election.[18]
The week before the primary was held, a Honolulu Civil Beat poll of likely voters found Ige with 51 percent support to Abercrombie's 41 percent support.[19] Abercrombie was endorsed in the primary by President Barack Obama (D). Ige was endorsed by former governors Ben Cayetano and George Ariyoshi.
A New York Times article written two months before the primary election suggested that Abercrombie faced a more difficult re-election campaign due to his appointment of Lt. Gov. Brian Schatz (D) to the U.S. Senate in December 2012 following the death of Sen. Daniel Inouye (D). In a letter written before his death, Inouye requested the appointment of Rep. Colleen Hanabusa (D) to his seat. The article argued that this decision sparked "a backlash that threatens to topple both Mr. Schatz and the governor — who had already been struggling during an occasionally tumultuous first term — in the Democratic primary on Aug. 9."[20]
In the aftermath of the primary, Abercrombie attributed his defeat to his decision to call a special session to legalize gay marriage in November 2013. He claimed that Republican opponents voted for Ige in the open Democratic primary. "Republicans crossed over en masse to vote in the Democratic primary, and then the religious factor came in," Abercrombie said.
Ige supported Abercrombie's decision to call for the special session. A spokeswoman for Ige's campaign, Lynn Kenton, said, "every candidate has the freedom to comment on their campaign, regardless of the outcome, and if that's what Gov. Abercrombie feels was his weaknesses, that would be for him to determine." [21]
Debates
October 15 debate
David Ige (D), Duke Aiona (R), and Mufi Hannemann (I) shared the stage during a debate sponsored by Hawaii News Now and the Honolulu Star-Advertiser. Hannemann criticized Ige and fellow legislators for rising electrical costs and problems faced by the state's public schools. He argued that Hawaii voters should question whether Ige could lead the way after spending 29 years in the legislature as the problems Aiona had pointed to developed. Ige responded that legislators have to reach consensus on major issues and that he was "running for governor because I know I can't do it as a legislator...I have to be governor to make these things work."[22]
Ige asserted that Aiona was selective in referring to his past experience as lieutenant governor, taking credit for some policies of the Lingle Administration while not associating himself with others. Aiona responded that voters could ask a similar question of Ige because he was running on a ticket with sitting Lt. Gov. Shan Tsutsui.[22]

Voter turnout
Political scientist Michael McDonald's United States Elections Project studied voter turnout in the 2014 election by looking at the percentage of eligible voters who headed to the polls. McDonald used voting-eligible population (VEP), or the number of eligible voters independent of their current registration status, to calculate turnout rates in each state on November 4. He also incorporated ballots cast for the highest office in each state into his calculation. He estimated that 81,687,059 ballots were cast in the 50 states plus the District of Columbia, representing 35.9 percent of the VEP.[23] By comparison, 61.6 percent of VEP voted in the 2008 presidential election and 58.2 percent of VEP voted in the 2012 presidential election.[24]
Quick facts
- According to PBS Newshour, voter turnout in the 2014 midterms was the lowest since the 1942 midterms, which took place during the nation's involvement in World War II.[25]
- Forty-three states and the District of Columbia failed to surpass 50 percent turnout in McDonald's analysis.
- The three states with the lowest turnout according to McDonald's analysis were Texas (28.3 percent), Tennessee (28.6 percent), and Indiana (28.8 percent).
- Maine (58.5 percent), Wisconsin (56.5 percent), and Colorado (54.5 percent) were the three states with the highest turnout.
- There were only 12 states that increased voter turnout in 2014 compared to the 2010 midterm elections.[26]
