Voters issue a powerful mandate for hunting, fishing and gathering on Hawaii island

From Mauna Kea RUG, November 16, 2012

The ballot item on the formation of a hunting, fishing and gathering advisory commission in the November 6 election passed by almost 2 to 1 margin. A total of 37,366 people voted for the item while 19,751 voted no and 6,676 left it blank.

Support for the commission apparently has no geographical boundaries as it was approved in every one of the 42 precincts on Hawaii island. When blank votes are considered, the item won by a majority in all but one precinct.
