    Get Out the Vote 2026 - Voter Registration Community Rally

    Sponsored by Maui Hotel & Lodging Association

    The Maui Hotel & Lodging Association is sponsoring a voter registration drive and candidate meet-and-greet event featuring local candidates running for Maui County Council and Hawaii State Legislature. The event will take place at the Queen Ka'ahumanu Center on Saturday, July 18, 2026 between 1pm - 3pm.

    This complimentary, nonpartisan event aims to educate, inform, and encourage voter registration among community residents and provide an opportunity to meet all candidates running for office. Each candidate will have a separate table where audience members can visit, ask questions, and get more information on registering to vote. Campaign donations will not be allowed during the event.
