Hawaii Legislature Wrestles With Primary Date Bill

Hawaii’s legislature seems to be having a tough time making up its mind about whether to move the primary from September to August. The bill making this move has passed both houses of the legislature, but the Senate version says the bill doesn’t take effect until 2050 (this is not a typo).

The bill has been discussed in two conference committees, on April 15 and again on April 19, but the conference committee still hasn’t resolved the final version of the bill. The conference committee will try again on April 20. UPDATE: now the committee will meet on April 21.
