John Carroll, Republican candidate for the U.S. Senate, is supporting Ron Paul for president.

We are pretty much in agreement on most important issues,” Carroll said in a statement. “The bottom line is that we both believe in the integrity of the U.S. Constitution.”

Meanwhile, supporters of Rick Santorum have appealed to Garett Hashimoto and the Hawaii Christian Coalition.

“The reason is that we have a republican caucus here to vote for the next president of the USA,” say Warner Kimo SuttonMary Smart and Elizabeth Lyons of Hawaii Grass roots for Santorum in a statement. “On March 13th we need the supporters to vote from 6 to 8 pm at the appropriate polling place. … Be it marriage, gaming, or life, we have to show our unity.”
