FYI, see where you stand on this. It may make it easier for you to decide. I voted already.

Let's dig a little deeper than to judge him on a question from the biased media .
Anosh Yaqoob, who says he’s proud that he’s not an “insider” and doesn’t want to see another incumbent run unopposed.
Yet Yaqoob did have criticisms of Kaneshiro.
He cited the example of Jon Riki Karamatsu, a former state lawmaker and prosecutor, who was twice
busted for driving under the influence. Karamatsu was
arrested for drunken driving in 2007 after he crashed his car into a concrete median when he was vice speaker of the state House of Representatives.
He was later hired to work as a deputy city prosecutor after an unsuccessful bid for lieutenant governor in 2010.
Karamatsu brought unwelcome attention to the prosecuting attorney’s office in 2014 when
it was discovered that he was an organizer of one of the largest raves in the state.
In 2015, Karamatsu was again arrested for drunken driving. He resigned before charges were filed by the Attorney General’s Office.
Yaqoob questioned
why Karamatsu’s criminal record didn’t disqualify him from getting a job as a prosecutor. 
He was also critical of numerous stances
Kaneshiro has taken over the years, like
opposing recent sex trafficking legislation[/b and the prosecutor’s handling of high-profile gambling case that was tossed out due to what one judge described as “a pattern of negligence.” 
Yaqoob said he believes that Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Katherine Kealoha, who is married to Honolulu Police Chief Louis Kealoha, should be placed on leave while she and her husband are under federal investigation for corruption and abuse of power.
“To me, what this is about is giving voters a chance to have an alternative, a new person in office. Either we can extend a 30-year career or we can start a new one.”
New is good.
