State Convention Election results
A few days before the State Convention, I started a thread where I intended to outline all the elections that would take place there. I didn’t have enough information or time to complete it. Oh well. But since I started on that topic, I figured may as well list the results of those elections. The delegate results are currently posted on the Democratic Party of Hawai‘i website and are copied below. We also voted for the new State Central Committee (I won my contest) and Electors, but I don’t see those results anywhere.

The title of your post refers to the convention election results, so readers might be counfused when they read a list of delegates which includes people who lost their positions at the Convention. The two National Committee members, Dolly Strazar and Richard Port, are attending the National Convention as the incumbent (and outgoing) members. Port declined to seek re-election and retired after years of service to the Party and Strazar was defeated in her re-election bid. Their terms expire at the adjournment of the Denver convention. The incoming members, National Committeeman-elect George Ariyoshi and National Committeewoman-elect Jadine Nielson, will assume their positions at that time.
