West Maui race sees razor-thin margin in potentially historic election

Green Party candidate Pā‘ele Kiakona holds a narrow 107-vote lead over Democrat Sne Patel in the race for Hawaii's state House District 14. With hundreds of ballots still unresolved due to deficiencies, the final outcome remains pending. If confirmed, Kiakona would become the fifth Green Party member elected to a state legislature in U.S. history. He is a prominent organizer for the Lahaina Strong recovery movement.
