Thank you for supporting me and our campaign!
Dear friends and supporters,

My congratulations go to Trustee Haunani Apoliona on her re-election. She has served the people of Hawai'i with true devotion and, I am confident, will continue to do so. My appreciation also goes to my fellow candidates in the race, Cal Lee, Walter Ritte, Keali'i Makekau, and Lancelot Lincoln.
All of you who have stood with me, encouraged me, and participated in our bid for public office, have come to mean so much. Special thanks go to my campaign manager Annabelle Stone and the amazing team of volunteers she has led. Without them, our impact would not have been possible. They deserve high praise and congratulations! I also thank Patty and our children for their sacrifices. I will cherish this experience and the trust many of you have placed in me.
Now, I am eager to continue with many of you, what we began, as we seek the Lord to confirm the next step. As a team, we have shown that it is possible to bring new ideas and dreams into the public square and gain a large following devoted to what is good and true. Together, we have achieved incredible ground in a very short period of time.
Stand by, friends. This is just the beginning in our service for the greater good!
Me kealoha pumehana,
Keli'i Akina
