Hawaii House of Representatives (2002-2004)
ELECTIONS
In 2002, after a redistricting, Gabbard (as Gabbard Tamayo) ran for Hawaii's 42nd House District of the Hawaii House of Representatives. In a four-candidate Democratic primary, she won with a plurality of 48%. She defeated Rida Cabanilla (30%), Dolfo Ramos (18%), and Gerald Vidal (4%). Gabbard Tamayo won the general election, defeating Republican Alfonso Jimenez 65%-35%.
In 2004, Gabbard Tamayo filed for re-election, but then volunteered for National Guard service in Iraq. Cabanilla, who filed for a rematch, called on the incumbent to resign, because she would not be able to represent her district from Iraq.[16] Gabbard Tamayo thus decided not to campaign for a second term. Cabanilla defeated Gabbard Tamayo in the Democratic primary 64%-25%.
TENURE
In 2002, at the age of 21, Gabbard Tamayo became the youngest legislator ever elected in the history of Hawaii and the youngest woman elected to state office in the nation. She represented the Oahu 42nd District, which covers Waipahu, Honouliuli, and Ewa Beach.
She played a key role, along with her Ewa colleagues, in securing funding for infrastructure on the Ewa Plains.
