The 2010 United States Senate election in Hawaii will take place on November 2, 2010 concurrently with elections to the United States Senate in other states as well as elections to the United States House of Representatives and various state and local elections.
Democrat Daniel Inouye will be 86 in 2010. He will have served eight terms in the Senate and compiled a career in Washington spanning over two generations, dating to Hawaii's first years of statehood. Inouye has announced he will seek reelection [1]
Democrats have traditionally dominated Hawaii's congressional delegation. Hawaii last elected a Republican Senator in 1970, and its delegation currently consists entirely of Democrats. Democrats have also won Hawaii's electoral votes in every presidential election since Ronald Reagan's landslide election in 1984. But incumbent two-term Governor Linda Lingle is a Republican.
