Political Discussion / Re: Primary Ballot 2026
« Last post by zippz on August 23, 2026, 02:29:39 PM »
Out of 846,543 registered voters in the state only 281,214 allegedly voted in the primaries. That's only 33.2% of the overall population of the state who voted!
And there are 210,805 Dems who voted by mail leaving only 47,250 Republican who voted by mail.

We've hisorically had low turnout numbers because of the strong democrat majority.  We also have automatic voter registration here and people don't get taken off the rolls if they don't vote.

For the republicans, it's a feeling of hopelessness and no strong republican contenders that have a chance of winning.  For the republican party would need a very deep and active grassroots initiative to win.  They aren't going to compete with funds, so they need a massive amount of people to put in a significant amount of time and effort.

For Kawakami vs Belatti, it was won with spending and advertising.  Kawakami spent $700k and the PAC For a Better Tomorrow (Carpenters and contractors union) spent $2 million.  For Bellati it was $230k campaign spending and $57k PAC (Gov Employees union) spending.

Belatti is the progresive candidate getting endorsements by the progressive orgs and votes for the gun control bills.

Kawakami is the moderate, and stayed away from the crazy stuff.  He's also been neutral on the gun control stuff as Mayor and is a hunter.  In the past, our Kauai gun rights allies encouraged him to stay out of the gun control stuff.

Kawakami send out about 8 mailers in town, Belatti none, HGEA sent one for her.

Tell me who are the "mailers", ballot harvesters?

Does Kawakami have a network that marks off which houses are planning to vote for him, sends out said harvesters to those houses to pick up their sealed mail-in ballots under the assumption that the individuals from said houses all casted votes for him?
If that's the game, then is Bellatti really that stupid or did the entire Democrat party machine pool all their resources into Kawakami being Josh Green's answer to a "come back" Lt Governor after Sylvia Luke got investigated by the Feds?




If Democrat party (Guys at the top) already decide who their next LT Governor is going to be, then why would you run a primary at all? Doesn't that defeat the purpose of the election process "by the people for the people"
Its like every Democrat competitor in every primary race ever is a non-vote, if Bellati had any self respect, her campaign should be anonymously blowing the whistle to the Feds that even among their own ranks the game is rigged!


This is why I can't stand the filth on the left, never mind the true criminals who lie and manipulate the system in their favor!
The REAL filth on the left, are the folks who are complicit enough to not be offended when the party chooses another candidate for them! You can disagree with Trump but to both hate him with TDS levels and never call out you own party when they do something as blatantly corrupt as rig the game against a candidate that you otherwise would have picked is all kinds of DISGUSTING! Grow some spine you God D@mned worms, do you ever pull your heads outta your own @$$3$ for a minute to wonder why the DSA backed candidates are taking over your f@#%!ng party! YOU, YOU ARE THE PROBLEM!!

Being a cuck with suicidal empathy and letting the aggressive droogs lie, cheat, and rig their way into power isn't going to satiate your desire for a revenge against the fabled "meany orange man" you are battered over the head with day and night from the media!
You are going to be miserable, deprived of your rights, you will never be able to fish because every body of water will be a "protected sanctuary", your service is going to continue to suck because nobody will give a $#!+ working a $#!+ job so expect long socialist lines, delays and nobody communicating back with you ever, your healthcare quality will continue to plummet until unbridled assisted-suicide would be advertised all over town like a god d@mned iPhone commercial, your kids (if you have any!) will be disadvantaged in schools because they are the wrong "gender", the wrong "religion", the wrong "thinking", the wrong "orientation", criminals will be allowed to rob your home, beat you to a bloody pulp and if you or your loved one fights back with so much as a walking cane or a kitchen knife the law will ignore the plain as day facts that they are old or disabled and will throw them in the slammer among the few grapists they will keep around the underfunded prisons! Homeless people will be allowed to take $#!+$ in front of public resturants, even your own manicured lawn, but why stop there they will also be allowed to $#!+ in the hallway to your own china style apartment you chose to compromise owning over a real home!

If any of the above sounds like the future you want to live in then I have three words for you GO...TO...HELL!!

The DOH is telling the public to take the following precautions:

    Assume there is fentanyl in all illicit drugs

I added a weighted blue rifle to my home setup. It makes cardio drills feel way more realistic for training.

New cars are all disposable junk that aren't worth fixing.

This is actually a good thing because it keeps people who are dumb enough to pay new car prices off the road.
