but people here apparently haven`t bothering reading the candidate list, recognized major protest figures as well as OHA officials
There are qualified, as well as unqualified candidates running in the Na'i Aupuni election. This is no different than any local county election, or statewide contest, or the current crop of candidates running for president. There are supporters of the anti TMT movement who are educated and experienced running in the election, but I have not seen anyone who could be described as a major protest figure, that is, someone who has spent weeks and months on Mauna Kea and has taken part in the rock rolling and other questionable activities that I find particularly qualified. But politics is personal and subjective, and each of us has a different idea of who we would find acceptable as a representative, so I would ask ironyak or dakine or anyone else, of the long term protest leaders on Mauna Kea, is there anyone you think would make a good delegate were they to win the election?
