It is pretty obvious the reason they went with all mail. All they care about is preserving their own power.

Thanks for the information.  Yes, it makes me disgusted.

I hope that by the time the governors race arrives people will wake up and remember these fiascos and all these fuckin "more of the same" assholes never see their names on the general election ballot.

But as an old man I've seen the people of Hawaii have short memories.  They only remember the D next to the candidate.  With that being said it is safe to say the majority of Hawaii voters ARE NUTS....

The problem is pretty simple

"Below, we’ll give you a complete list of Hawaii’s 100 largest companies, but first, here’s a look at the top 10:"

   1 State of Hawaii
   2 Honolulu Community College
   3 Queen’s Health Systems
   4 Hawaii Pacific Health
   5 Hawaiian Airlines
   6 Hawaii State Teachers Association
   7 Hawaiian Electric Industries
   8 City of Honolulu
   9 St. Francis Hospital
  10 HONOLULU INT AIRPORT

This report was made before the present flu hit the islands,
so I can only assume Hawaiian airlines has a lower rank these days.
These are most all unionized,
they didn't get economically damaged
by the actions of their Democrat government.
They don't care, they don't have to.

Practice passive aggression.
Don't cooperate with government agents.
Deal in cash only.
Barter where possible.
Shop Ebay and others that don't pay sales tax.
Are just a few things you can do to reduce
income to the government.  Since we don't seem to
be able to eliminate the single party Hawaiian
governments  perhaps we can start to starve them.

Food for thought....
Could it be that all these positive tests that these government officials are touting are not all Covid 19 positive tests?  Why is the death rate low but positive tests are high?  According to the CDC the current Covid test tests for 3 different viruses (https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/lab/testing.html?fbclid=IwAR3Ec83CE--WzAqyb5Novv5wr-BjHLbgsc8eI-hy6sGwjlcVRfRbcJwJrdw) influenza A, influenza B and the SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19.  Could it be that a lot of the positives are influenza A or B?  If people took the flue shots days weeks or months before getting tested for covid19 could it show up as a positive for Covid19?  Something to think about.  I'm also hearing that the common cold virus would trigger a positive, may be it falls under the A or B virus, not sure.

Personally i think it's all about the election.  Think about it.  It ruins the economy, they'll blame it on Trump.  It stops Trumps huge rally's.  It prevents Biden from debating Trump.  It promotes fear so the Democrats can push Mail in voting to cheat in the election, and so on I'm sure you get the idea.

I agree.

There's a NYT article out this week saying that the primary method of testing for COVID probably results in about 90% of the tests recorded as positive when they should be negative.

The test takes a swab, then enhances it. If no COVID, they enhance it again, kind of like increasing the magnification on a microscope -- only they are amplifying the contents of the sample.  They keep doing this, and if ANY COVID material is found, they mark it positive.

The thing is, the amount of COVID they find after all that enhancement is insignificant, and the subject is most likely not contagious and is never going to display symptoms.  They basically were exposed at some point, but the disease never manifested.

So, in other words, that test is totally worthless.  I could find 100 COVID-infected people from a sample of 1,000 people by blindly picking 100 names at random.  I only need to get 10 of them right to have the same accuracy as this test. 10:100 is 1-in-10.  Pretty good odds for a random sample.
