拥有一家承包公司的加里·科德里在周六的初选中击败企业主肯·藤山,赢得夏威夷州州长共和党提名。
他将于11月与民主党现任州长乔希·格林展开对决,当前形势对现任议员极为有利。库克政治报告将这场竞争评为“稳固民主党”,党派投票指数为D+13。
科德里面临着艰巨挑战:自琳达·林格尔2010年卸任以来,夏威夷再无共和党州长。

除了要面对支持率达56%的现任州长,以及民主党长期掌控夏威夷州的历史背景外,科德里还面临着与格林相比的显著资金劣势。
据《檀香山公民报》报道,格林已筹集约350万美元,远超仅筹得约31.3万美元的科德里。
尽管胜算渺茫,科德里仍向选民宣传其核心竞选纲领:降低夏威夷高昂的生活成本、改革教育系统以及打击腐败。
“作为丈夫、父亲、祖父、商人和社区服务者,我热爱夏威夷,”科德里在接受《檀香山公民报》采访时表示,“这片拥有独特美景的群岛数十年来一直管理不善。当地民众承受着巨大的压力和焦虑。我参选是为了创造机会、创造富足,确保资源得到妥善管理,为民众带来问责制和希望。”

科德里创造富足的计划之一是在各群岛为工薪家庭新增1.5万套住房,售价区间约为40万至60万美元。他的提案呼吁利用州有土地建造绝对所有权住房,同时简化审批流程,开放更多土地用于住宅开发。

他还提议取消州政府对食品和药品征收的一般消费税,并为退休房主冻结财产税。科德里认为,州政府未能妥善管理纳税人的资金,并表示将下令开展审计以根除浪费。

“夏威夷140万人口却要背负205亿美元的预算,这一数字令人震惊。新罕布什尔州同样有140万人口,预算却仅为77.5亿美元,”科德里说,“我认为我们的税务负担已经失控。解决之道在于管理。”

Gary Cordery, who owns a contracting company, won the Republican nomination for Hawaii governor after defeating business owner Ken Fujiyama in Saturday’s primary.
He is now set to face Democratic Gov. Josh Green in November in a race that heavily favors the incumbent. The Cook Political Report rates the contest as Solid Democratic, with a Partisan Voting Index of D+13.
Cordery faces a steep challenge: Hawaii has not had a Republican governor since Linda Lingle left office in 2010.

In addition to facing an incumbent with a 56% approval rating and Hawaii’s long history of Democratic control, Cordery faces a significant financial disadvantage against Green.
Green has raised approximately $3.5 million, far outpacing Cordery, who has raised about $313,000, according to Honolulu Civil Beat.
Despite the uphill battle, Cordery is pitching voters on a platform centered on lowering Hawaii’s high cost of living, reforming education and cracking down on corruption.
“As a husband, father and grandfather, businessman and community servant, I love Hawai’i,” Cordery said in an interview with Honolulu Civil Beat. “These islands of unique beauty have endured mismanagement for decades. Her people live under tremendous stress and anxiety. I am running to open opportunity, create abundance and ensure stewardship of her resources, bringing accountability and hope for the people.”

Part of Cordery’s plan to create abundance includes adding 15,000 homes across the islands for working families, with prices ranging from roughly $400,000 to $600,000. His proposal calls for using state-owned land for fee-simple housing while streamlining permitting and opening more land for residential development.

He is also proposing eliminating the state’s General Excise Tax on food and medicine and freezing property taxes for homeowners at retirement. Cordery argues that the state is failing to properly manage taxpayers’ dollars and says he would order audits to root out waste.

“Hawai’i’s 20.5 billion dollar budget for 1.4 mil[lion] people is a staggering number. New Hampshire has 1.4 million people but a $7.75 billion dollar budget,” Cordery said. “I believe our tax burden is out of control. The answer is management.”
