<br />MR. DILL: --Yes— <br /> <br />MS. KAWAUCHI: --without—on County letterhead, on Elections Commission <br />letterhead, based upon communications that you had with persons that you did not <br />identify. My understanding is that those offices that you requested to take over the <br />Elections Office, based on a performance audit, an audit of a voter registry that I <br />performed, which has been in the process of being investigated--Hawai‘i County Police <br />has just announced it’s being investigated, they opened an investigation just yesterday, a <br />completely legitimate process which is being investigated properly by— <br /> <br />MR. DILL: Can you— <br /> <br />MS. KAWAUCHI: --Excuse me-- <br /> <br />MR. DILL: --get to your point, please? <br /> <br />MS. KAWAUCHI: My point is, you have an ethics problem, is what I think you got. <br />Because you’re trying to get into the operations of our office. <br /> <br />MR. DILL: I wrote a letter requesting that others look into the Office of Elections, as a <br />private citizen, because of the concerns that were surfacing by the public at large and the <br />elections, okay. I’m a voter. I’m a registered voter, if you can maybe double-check that <br />to make sure that that’s the truth, okay. And that has nothing to do with you. It has <br />nothing to do with Mr. Yagong, or the letter and the investigation that was requested by <br />the County—the State Office of Elections. <br /> <br />MR. YAGONG: Just a second here— <br /> <br />MR. DILL: --Hold on, we have something on the table right now. Mr. Henricks? <br /> <br />MR. HENRICKS: Yes, as I stated, if you have a quandary about him sitting here, either <br />one of you, according to our rules you must file an affidavit before this Board, stating <br />that quandary of why you feel he is to not sit, and the Board— <br /> <br />MR. YAGONG: --I will do so— <br /> <br />MR. HERNICKS: --okay, wait a minute—let me finish. And the Board at that time will <br />take it up as a matter on the agenda between the rest of the three of us, and we would <br />decide whether you have improperly challenged him as to bias and prejudice, all right? <br /> <br />MR. YAGONG: I will do so. <br /> <br />MR. DILL: Okay, so at this point what I’ll do— <br /> <br />MR. YAGONG: --Mr. Dill-- <br /> <br />MR. DILL: --is I’ll cut off any— <br /> <br />
