Ed Case ends his campaign for Hawaii House seat
Former Rep. Ed Case (D-Hawaii) announced Sunday he won't pursue the Democratic nomination to face Rep. Charles Djou (R-Hawaii), which improves his party's chances of retaking the seat it lost in the recent special election.

"We've taken apart the results and analyzed our options every which way," Case wrote in an email to supporters. "If it all lined up it'd be an easy decision, but it doesn't."

Case finished third in the May 22 vote.

"My heart tells me to stay in this fight, but my head says this has become the wrong fight. So today I'm withdrawing my candidacy for the U. S. House of Representatives from Hawaii's great first district," he wrote.

1. Ed Case is a God Forsaken DLC Loser. Good riddance.
He is nothing more than a face.

4. Pleased Case decided to 'go with his head' and not pursue Dem nomination for the seat.
