Have you ever considered that O'ahu has a lot of environmental nonprofits that have their main offices located there? That represents a lot of people who are probably willing and eager to support Russell, and having a fundraiser there will make it easier for them to do so. And also to hear his message. Just because he is having a fundraiser there does NOT mean that he has sold out, OR that he will not have any here, OR that he is wooing corporate money. Get real. Look at his record. He has not wavered from his promises or his platform. That's because, although he is a State senator he is basically not a politician. He is a man with integrity and has walked his talk unwaveringly for the 35+ years that I have known him.
