You can also vote in-person Saturday at sites statewide

Voters who haven’t yet put their mail-in ballots in their mailboxes need to deposit them at secured drop boxes or vote in person to make their votes count in Saturday’s Primary Election.

Mail-in ballots must be received, not postmarked, by 7 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 13. That means there’s not enough time to ensure mailed ballots will be received in time for the deadline.

You can drop your ballots at dozens of secured sites around Hawaii until 7 p.m. Saturday.

Voters can still vote in person if they choose. Ten voter service centers around the state will provide accessible, in-person voting, same-day voter registration, and voting ballot collection. Most of them are open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. on election day.

The Hawaii State Teachers Association recommends candidates who support public school educators and students. See HSTA’s list of recommended primary candidates here.

The State of Hawaii Office of Elections expects to release the results of primary political races after 7 p.m. Saturday. The first printout is expected to include the majority of the mail-in vote. Printouts later Saturday evening will include numbers from in-person voters on election day and from ballots that arrived in the mail Saturday.
