Cast an Informed Ballot

By The Molokai Dispatch Staff

The Molokai Dispatch reached out to candidates in key Molokai races to help voters make more informed decisions. Lynn DeCoite (D), running for District 7 State Senator, Adam Scott (R) running for Dist. 13 State Representative, and both OHA Molokai Resident Trustee candidates, Luana Alapa and Kunani Nihipali, did not respond to the survey.

For registered voters, mail-in ballots were sent out Oct. 18. Ballots must be received by the county election division before 7 p.m. on Nov. 5. Ballots can be returned by mail, postmarked to be received by the deadline, or can be returned at the drop-off box outside the Mitchell Pauole Center until Nov. 5. Make sure to sign the outside of your ballot for it to be counted. For in-person voting, residents can vote from Oct. 31 until Nov. 5 at the Mitchell Pauole Center.
