Nago: Change will be transparent to voters, poll workers

HONOLULU —

The State Chief Election Officer Scott Nago announced Tuesday that the Office of Elections will rescind its delegation of state responsibilities to the County of Hawaii.

The state office will administer election day activities such as delivery and collection, control center and polling place operations.

"We believe that this decision best ensures a successful general election in the County of Hawaii," Nago said. "It will allow the county to focus its resources exclusively on voter registration and absentee voting."
