Hawaii youth engage in voting process

Hundreds of students from Kamehameha, Mid-Pacific and St. Andrew's Priory gathered around the Kamehameha statue Tuesday, sign-waving before walking over to Honolulu Hale to drop off general election ballots or watch the process unfold. Kamehameha Schools is part of Our Kaiulu Votes, an inclusive, Native Hawaiian-led movement urging kanaka maoli, especially first-time voters, to exercise their right through campaigns like Our Kaiaulu Votes and Walk to the Box events.
