OK, could someone please lay out in good, clear, words without hyperbole the issue regarding apportionment and "Puna" representation in the County Council.
To me, plenty of the words here on this issue come across as parochial whining and lacking constructive substance -- if the people making those words would rather project a different impression, then please explain the above.
Be told: I am not convinced that Waa Waa and Volcano, and Keaau Ag lots and Kehena Beach, and Fern Forest and Hawaiian Paradise Park are all so homogeneous -- as well as being so different from Pahala and Panaewa -- that "Puna" is so well differentiated for purposes of representative democracy.
