#aarp debate maui

Governor Neil Abercrombie is withdrawing from three out of four scheduled AARP-sponsored debates, including Friday’s face off with Senator David Ige in Kahului, event organizers announced.

AARP Hawaii will sponsor a gubernatorial debate between Governor Neil Abercrombie and state Senator David Ige at the Maui Beach Hotel in Kahului on Friday, July 18.

Maui voters will have an opportunity to view a live forum and debate between US Senate candidates Ed Case and Mazie Hirono. The event is hosted by AARP Hawaii, with the forum portion of the event focusing on Social Security and Medicare, as well as other issues of concern to residents age 50 and over.
