Former First Lady Vicky Cayetano confirms she's considering a run for governor
HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) - Former First Lady Vicky Cayetano has confirmed to Hawaii News Now that she’s considering a run for governor.
If she runs, she’s poised to face off against established politicians like Lt. Gov. Josh Green and former Honolulu Mayor Kirk Caldwell ― both of whom have not formally announced runs yet, either.
In an interview with HNN, Cayetano said she’s “seriously thinking” about running for governor.
Cayetano helped Honolulu Mayor Rick Blangiardi during his campaign, and now the commercial laundry services president is considering a run for the seat her husband once filled.
“I’ve seen my husband’s public service. I’ve been privileged to be former first lady and as a businesswoman who started her business 34 years ago. I see a lot of things that we can do and I hope to bring that lifetime career of finding solutions and working with people,” said Cayetano.
