Trump wins GOP caucuses in Hawaii after securing presidential nomination
Biden wins Georgia, Mississippi primaries securing spot in 2024 race
Voters in Georgia, which was a key battleground state in the last president election, sound off on the candidates in the 2024 election.
KAILUA, Hawaii — Former President Donald Trump emerged victorious in Hawaii’s Republican presidential caucuses, further cementing his path to reelection after securing the GOP nomination late Tuesday.
With 98% of precincts reporting, Trump leads all other candidates with 97% of the vote. Also on Tuesday, President Joe Biden secured the Democratic nomination after wins in Georgia, Mississippi, Washington, and the Northern Mariana Islands, setting up an all-but-certain rematch against Trump in November.

Trump’s dominance in the race was evident from the outset, with his formidable performance on Super Tuesday, where he won 14 out of 15 contests. In 2016, Trump demonstrated his popularity in Hawaii, winning the caucuses against a more crowded field.
The Hawaii Republican caucuses allocated 19 delegates, distributed across various subgroups based on the statewide vote and congressional district results.
The latest win for Trump comes after the Republican National Committee laid off more than 60 people on Tuesday. Last Friday, the former president installed three allies, including his daughter-in-law, in top roles after suggesting that former chair Ronna McDaniel step down.

Manitowoc-built crane sets sail for Navy base in Hawaii
MANITOWOC (WLUK) — A 200-foot Manitowoc-built crane is on its way to a Navy Base in Hawaii.
Big Blue P-82 sailed out of the Manitowoc Harbor Friday morning to Navy Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam on the island of Oahu.
Manitowoc Mayor Justin Nickels posted a bon voyage post to social media, reading in part:
Pearl Harbor is where America’s involvement in World War II began — a moment that changed the course of history. And it is altogether fitting that Big Blue now heads to that very place, because Manitowoc played a defining role in that same war effort. Right here on the same peninsula where Big Blue was built, the people of Manitowoc constructed 28 submarines that helped secure victory and defend freedom around the world. That legacy of ingenuity, patriotism, and hard work is still alive today. The men and women of this community continue to build big things — important things — that support our nation and strengthen our future. Their skill and dedication are part of a story that spans generations. We’re proud of Big Blue, proud of those who built it, and proud of Manitowoc’s enduring place in American history. Safe travels, Big Blue; from a city that helped win a war to the harbor where it began, we wish you fair winds and following seas
BE THE FIRST TO COMMENT
The crane will make the 7,600 to 7,800 nautical mile journey from the Manitowoc Harbor through the St. Lawrence Seaway, down the East Coast of the U.S. before going through the Panama Canal to the island of Oahu.
