Hannemann may not be flying in the polls, but he’s still racking up the endorsements.

Capitol Watch reports:

Excerpts from a press release:

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid today announced his endorsement of Democrat Mufi Hannemann for U.S. House from Hawaii’s 2nd Congressional District Seat.

Reid stated, “Congress needs leaders like Mufi Hannemann. Mufi and I go back many years. I worked with Mufi and Senator Akaka to help save Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard. I worked with Mufi and Senator Inouye on infrastructure funding and strengthening tourism across the country. We share goals for a better America.”

Reid concluded, “Mufi’s record of achievement, experience, and relationships in Washington, D.C., would make him an invaluable member of our team on Capitol Hill — and I’m very excited about welcoming him to Congress.”

Reid’s PAC — the Searchlight Leadership Fund — has contributed $10,000 to Hannemann’s campaign.
