Hawaii Democrats recommend U.S. Rep. Hanabusa, Lt. Gov. Schatz, and DLNR deputy director Kiaaina to replace the late U.S. Sen. Inouye.

The Governor has to pick one of those three,
he announced last night that he will announce his appointment pick TODAY (Wednesday).

Caroline Hanabusa herself.. I want Gov Abercrombie to chose her to honor his wish. Lt Gov Schatz is needed at home and I don't know anything about Kiaaina.

I was just about to post on that thread that was locked in LBN that there were 12 original people who applied for the job..from the huff post link that stated Cory Booker was promoting Tulsi Gabbard to replace Senator Daniel Inouye..
