Social media has a greater role in political campaigns than ever before.
In the race for Hawaii’s open U.S. Senate seat, at least two of the candidates have taken their social media campaigns to, well, the dogs. (And cats.)
Democratic U.S. Rep. Mazie Hirono and former Gov. Linda Lingle have unveiled rival Facebook pages for the pet lover demographic. (A Google search did not turn up a similar page for former U.S. Rep. Ed Case, who also is in the race.)
Here, the links to the Hirono and Lingle pages:

Caring more about pets than homeless. Yet many people who own pets euthanize them rather than pay the medical bill to heal their pets but if it were a homeless they do nothing. Homeless is an issue not pet care.

In an other attempt to pander to “moderate” voters, Lingle claims to like dogs and cats equally.

Goober, this might be one of the only times I agree with you.
They recently reported that the Pet industry hit 5 billion dollars annually.
Wow imagine if that money was used for the homeless or those starving in 3rd world countries.
The State legislature is overly concerned about animal bills and does its best to tax and burden human beings as much as possible.

I don’t need any approval to the comments I make.
