9:47 p.m. — Mufi Concedes, Criticizes Special Interest Money

By /
Mufi Hannemann has just conceded the 2nd Congressional District race to Tulsi Gabbard. The music stopped here for a few minutes and the volume was turned up so Gabbard supporters could listen in.

Hannemann said he ran a positive campaign, and made a reference to the “special interest” money that help Gabbard get her name out. His words were met here with a mix of groans and derisive laughter.

Gabbard will probably give her victory speech pretty shortly.
