Taylor Kaaumoana completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2024. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Kaaumoana's responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.
| Collapse all
- Election Integrity, remember when we could vote at nearby schools? Elected officials passed a law to get rid of that option. Why mail in ballots? Why is one of the best options unsecured official ballot drop boxes in the middle of parks parking lots?
- Legislative annual budget, who’s money is that? It is not the “States money” it is taxpayers dollars. We the people should have the first and last say on where our money is ending up.
- It’s a kakou thing to take care of each other from before hanau (birth) to seeing each other off after death. Hawaii people are the true living breathing aloha. Man’s law should be aligned with making life and giving life. The deepest respect goes to everyone who makes a positive impact in our world. Elected officials should be honored to represent legacies and not pass laws to break up Ohana.
