Hawaii: Resignation intensifies worries about elections - Hawaii News - Starbulletin.com

Resignation intensifies worries about elections - Hawaii News - Starbulletin.com:

The resignation of Chief Election Officer Kevin Cronin is renewing concerns about whether there is enough money, manpower and time to plan successful elections next year.

In a letter Tuesday to Cronin signed by all four county clerks in charge of elections, the clerks said they believe "planning for the 2010 elections continues to be significantly behind schedule without assurance that an election similar to the 2008 elections can be achieved given the financial restrictions."

The primary election is set for Sept. 19 and at stake are contests for governor, lieutenant governor, U.S. House and possibly Honolulu mayor.
