Just saying something is "well-documented" does not make it so. If it's so well-documented, provide the link.
I can't find any article supporting your statement that 90% of Native Hawaiians voted against statehood.
Seeing as 94% of the Hawaii residents (who voted) voted for statehood, which is an indisputable fact, then the 90% number becomes extremely unlikely. It's also impossible to prove because the ballot is secret.
If deaths from Three Mile Island are so "well-documented" then let's see a link. That reality is that there was not a single death. This is because there was hardly any radiation. Here's a quote from wikipedia on the subject:
"The average radiation dose to people living within ten miles of the plant was eight millirem, and no more than 100 millirem to any single individual. Eight millirem is about equal to a chest X-ray, and 100 millirem is about a third of the average background level of radiation received by US residents in a year."[37][57]
[...]A variety of studies have been unable to conclude that the accident had substantial health effects.
