"Hawaii Democratic state representative Kaniela Ing was first elected to the state legislature in 2012 at the age of 23, winning a five-person Democratic primary and then shellacking the incumbent Hawaii House minority whip by a stunning 27 points. Now, he serves in the House leadership as one of two “majority policy leaders” in the most Democratic state legislature in the country.

Now, Ing is looking to the next step: he’s running for Congress in Hawaii’s First Congressional District, a seat being vacated by Congresswoman and gubernatorial candidate Colleen Hanabusa. The opportunity doesn’t come around that often—just seven people have held the seat since 1970— and so naturally, Ing has a decidedly tough battle ahead of him: his opponents in the primary include lieutenant governor and former Hawaii Attorney General Doug Chin.

Ing’s accomplishments and quick rise in a party led by aging politicians—all before the age of 30—is notable enough. Perhaps what’s most interesting, however, is that Ing is a self-identified democratic socialist, a small but growing ideological identification among young Americans."*
