This is a place for members of Progressive Democrats of Hawai‘i to express their thoughts
and exasperations about political happenings. The opinions and views are not necessarily
those of PDH's steering committee or membership as a whole.

As we mentioned in our outline of what to expect at the State Democratic Convention coming up in in less than 2 weeks, one of the orders of business will be to elect people to a number of positions. I will outline the races and candidates that I know of and invite others to weigh in on candidates that they are supporting.

Yesterday was the deadline for submission of resolutions for consideration at the May 23-25th State Convention . Most of the resolutions  are those which were adopted by the county conventions held this past weekend. Those resos should soon be available online, if they are not already. A smaller number of resolutions have been submitted by individuals.

NOTE: It is still possible to introduce LATE resolutions by 4 pm on the Friday afternoon of the Convention. The maker must provide 75 printed copies and an electronic version a CD.  The same submittal form, with the necessary signatures, must be filled out.

Please post comments with links to online versions of proposed resolutions.
