Clarification
When I posted:
I guess since "*****" is in the OP, anything weed related is on topic?
I was referring to the botanical "******", as there were so many posts about marijuana growing. I didn't intend it to mean human "******" but understand it might be read both ways.
What I was really asking was, what does TEH's voter fraud charge have to do with growing marijuana in Puna?

Again it was a mind set here, the whole place was practically illegal.
Big pieces of it still are.

This should be in the POLITICS section of PunaWeb. Then I'd know to avoid it to start with.

The offense is here:
(2) Any person who knowingly votes when the person is not entitled to vote;
Sorting between the property tax abuse and the voting fraud, she said the Pahoa surf shop was her residence registering to vote in south Puna district. Then, she switched her residence to her Hawaiian Acres house just before filing for election in the north Puna district. The contention is she never lived in the surf shop because it does not have a residence in it, having been turned into a commercial business building in a controversial zoning dispute. If she sticks to the story and that turns out to be perjury, then the trouble is going to get deeper. Being arrested, the surf property building might be subject to a search warrant, to identify the living quarters.
She got within a few hundred votes of being elected, while pulling all this property tax and campaign fraud in the background. Guess this is the lesson about journalist ethics (=none).

Wow similar issue with the just appointed son of Gil Kahele by Governor Ige on the front page today. He deserves to be prosecuted as well. Geez.

Can we get some honest decent people around here in office? Is that asking too much?
