Advertiser Staff

U.S. Rep. Mazie Hirono is seeking her second term in office after filing nomination papers for this year's general election today at the State Office of Elections, her office said in a press release.

The Democratic candidate represents the 2nd Congressional District, which includes Central, Leeward, Windward and North Shore O'ahu and the Neighbor Islands.

The release said Hirono is committed to continuing her work and has received more than $1 million toward her campaign from supporters in education, the environment, women's issues and the peace movement.
