The instrument was submitted and reviewed in the presence of the members of the <br /> <br /> committee in a proceeding open to the public and press. Pursuant to Section 114(a)(3), Article <br /> XI, Hawaii County Charter, which states: <br /> <br /> petitions which reasonably comply with this subsection (a) shall be <br /> accepted by the clerk without delay (emphasis added) <br /> <br /> the pages deemed acceptable were received for processing. <br /> <br /> 7. The 250 pages were accepted after it was determined that each set of pages was <br /> <br /> accompanied by an Affidavit executed by the circulator of the pages attesting to the effect that <br /> <br /> the person circulated a set of papers, each page bears a stated number of signatures, each <br /> signature was affixed in the circulator's presence and each signature is the genuine signature of <br /> <br /> the person whose name it purports to be. <br /> <br /> 8.

Each <br /> <br /> signature line which corresponded to an apparently valid signature was reviewed to determine if <br /> the name and social security number indicated by the computerized check matched the <br /> <br /> information provided by the signer. The information in the column entitled "Date" was checked <br /> <br /> to confirm that the signer indicated a proper date of signing. Those signatures found to have <br /> <br /> matching information and which had an acceptable signing date were validated. <br /> 11. Based on the computerized check and the manual review it is determined that the <br /> <br /> supplemental filing contains not less than 976 additional valid signatures.
