Just like on the Big Island, there were 15 candidates vying to be Honolulu’s Mayor.  The two top vote-getters, neither of them with experience in elected office, will go on to face off in the General Election on Nov. 3.  Just as on the Big Island, the Mayor of the City and County of Honolulu is a nonpartisan seat, and since none of the candidates received more than 50% of the vote, the top two contenders move on to the General Election.

Either Rick Blangiardi, former football coach and former head of Hawaii News Now, or Keith Amemiya, a lawyer and former Executive Director of the Hawaiʻi High School Athletics Association, will become the next Mayor of the City and County of Honolulu.

Keith Amemiya                                                                Rick Blangiardi
