Given the length of time Democrats have dominated Hawaii politics since 1959, and outnumber Republicans 46 to 5 in the house, no senators in the 25 member senate, can parallels be drawn with Hawaii and a Domiinant Party System. "A dominant-party system or one-party dominant system, is a system where there is "a category of parties/political organizations that have successively won election victories and whose future defeat cannot be envisaged or is unlikely for the foreseeable future."[1] Many are de facto one-party systems, and often devolve into de jure one-party systems. Usually, the dominant party consistently holds majority government, without the need for coalitions"
If the people of Hawaii are pleased with the way the state has been run politically since 1959 then continue to elect Democrats. If not, then perhaps its time to rethink other party candidates, who, if given the opportunity, might possibly make a difference.
