Shouldn't OHA elections be democratic?

Last year, with your help, we protected the so-called "ceded" lands from being sold. This year, we want to do one simple thing.

We want to democratize Office of Hawaiian Affairs elections. We hope you will help us.

QUESTION: What's wrong with the current OHA elections process?

ANSWER: Under the current OHA elections process, a candidate can win an OHA election even if he gets only 30% of the votes.


QUESTION: But, shouldn't the winner of important elections have support from more than 30% of the voters?

ANSWER: Yes! Justice, fairness and democratic principles all require that winning candidates in elections have support from at least 51% of the voters. We have to democratize OHA elections.
