ACTION:

Use the voter registration process of the U.S. and “State of Hawaii” to confirm that HAWAIIAN NATIONALS are excluded from voting in those elections because HAWAIIAN NATIONALS are not U.S. Citizens.

WHAT’S THIS ABOUT?:

To register to vote in U.S. occupied Hawaii you have to fill out a form stating you are 1) a U.S. Citizen and 2) a resident of the State of Hawaii. If you do not meet those qualifications you cannot be registered to vote. By definition, Hawaiian Nationals do not meet those qualifications. So why try to register to vote in their elections?

You want the rejection letter! You want to get from the State of Hawaii, an official letter confirming that you cannot participate in their U.S. elections because: 1) you are not a U.S. citizen and 2) you are not a resident of the State of Hawaii. In other words, with the rejection slip, you now have an official document that indicates that you are not a part of the body politic of the U.S.

If based on your application, the state government accepted you are not a U.S. citizen, because you said so, then shouldn’t they also accept your word claiming that you are a Hawaiian National?

So what’s the use for this exercise? We’re not really sure. But it could be come in handy in traffic court..., or in discussing whether you are liable for U.S. or state income taxes..., or ? 

OBJECTIVE:
To acquire a rejection letter from the State Elections Office stating you do not qualify to vote in U.S. and State of Hawaii elections because 1) you are not a U.S. citizen and 2) you are not a resident of the State of Hawaii. 

If you plan to vote in the upcoming U.S. and State of Hawaii elections, then don’t do this. It is totally your call.

TAKING ACTION:
This can be done as a group or individually.
During this state’s election cycle, go to the nearest County Clerk Office and fill out a voter registration form and file it.

You want to fill it out completely (name, address, etc.)
    But be sure to check ‘NO’ for the questions:
    Are you a U.S. citizen?
    Are you a resident of the State of Hawaii?

    We also recommend you don’t provide a Social Security Number
    Just leave it blank or put ‘none‘ or ‘NA‘ in the space.

Give your application to the clerk. The clerk will probably be confused and think you made mistakes and ask if you really want to put your registration application in. They’ll also warn you that it will get rejected. Say that’s OK.

A week or so later, you will get your rejection letter in the mail saying you cannot vote in the State of Hawaii because 1) you are not a U.S. citizen and 2) you are not a resident of the State of Hawaii.

Congratulations! The “State” agreed with you and determined you are not one of them!
