therefore aim the total district divided by nine to that number? I realize it is not in the software that way, but isnÓt that what we are really talking about doing? MS. EOFF: My understanding is that at some point in time, and I think we need to find out the date when this is going to happen, the State is going to extract the non resident students and the non resident military from our HawaiÒi island software, so that while you are moving your blocks around, those numbers are going to be out. I donÓt know when that is supposed to happen though. MR. MIDDLESWORTH : It has to happen soon, because their deadline is rapidly approaching. MS.

KAHAWAIOLAÒA: Madam Chair. Since Mr. Melrose asked a second question, I would be interested to know, because that exchange brought the hairs up on my neck because Mr. Middlesworth reached forward towards his mic. I would like to hear Mr. MiddlesworthÓs explanation on the exchange that happened just now between Mr. Melrose and himself. MR. MIDDLESWORTH: We canÓt just subtract the 1,300 people and spread it evenly across the island. We have to know which census blocks they fall in. So, either I can go ahead and do 33
