Reapportionment Panel Back At Drawing Board

By /
It’s set for 3 p.m. at Capitol Conference Room 329. The commission is tasked with coming up with new political district boundaries, per the Hawaii Supreme Court‘s rejection of how the commission counted military and students as residents.

Commission members are already grumbling that they won’t have time to get their work done before Feb. 1, when state and county candidates can begin filing to run for office.

As well, word is the Office of the Attorney General has replaced the deputy AG handling the state’s case and assigned three others.
