Councilmember, South Maui

How does this member’s recorded behavior — votes, the money behind them, and recusals — line up against the will of the voters they represent? Every figure below is sourced; each is a question for the Board of Ethics, not a finding. The donations shown are this member’s OWN campaign filings (matched by candidate name); the large dollar figures are the vendors’ county contracts set beside those donations — not the member’s money.

Sourced: Maui County CivicClerk minutes (vote record) · Hawaiʻi Campaign Spending Commission (donations, keyed by candidate name) · HANDS Notice-of-Award (contracts). A member's donations are their OWN filings; a predecessor who held the seat earlier raised their own money — never conflated. Framed as questions for the Board of Ethics (Maui Charter Art. 10 / HRS ch. 84), never verdicts.
