HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) - The race to be Hawaii’s next lieutenant governor is still a year away, but it’s already attracting a crowded field.

Candidates include state Rep. and House Finance Chair Sylvia Luke and and her former state Senate counterpart, former state Sen. Jill Tokuda; and two former city Councilmembers: Ikaika Anderson and Ron Menor, who is also a former longtime state lawmaker.

Two business leaders, Chamber of Commerce of Hawaii CEO Sherry Menor-McNamara and former Hawaii High School Athletics Association Executive Director Keith Amemiya, who also ran unsuccessfully for mayor last year, are also running.

“Really it’s probably anyone’s race but I think Tokuda, Anderson and Amemiya are likely to have the most name recognition,” said Hawaii News Now Political Analyst Colin Moore.
