PART III. BOARDS OF REGISTRATION
§11-41 Boards of registration, appointment, tenure.
(a)There shall be four boards of registration: one for the island of Hawaii; one for the islands of Maui, Molokai, Lanai, and Kahoolawe; one for the island of Oahu; and one for the islands of Kauai and Niihau. The boards, which shall be in the department of accounting and general services for administrative purposes, shall consist of three members each who shall be appointed by the governor by and with the advice and consent of the senate; their terms of office shall be four years. Each member shall, at the time of appointment and continuing through their term of office, be a registered voter in the respective county of the board to which the member is appointed.
(b)In no case shall any board consist entirely of members of one political party. Party membership shall be the member's party membership at the time of appointment and shall be determined by the respective political party. If a member changes their party membership during their term of office, then the member's new party membership shall be their membership for the purposes of this subsection. Upon request by the governor or a senator, a member shall provide verification of party membership. A member shall also provide notice that they have changed their party membership to the governor and senate president if the member changes their party membership during their term of office.
(c)The several boards of registration shall sit in the county seats of their respective counties on election day. The boards shall also sit at such other times as the clerk determines within the various representative districts in their respective counties to hear appeals, provided there are any, from the voters registered within such districts. The boards shall continue their sittings until all appeals have been heard.
(d)Reasonable notices of the sitting of the boards shall be given in their respective districts or counties. [L 1970, c 26, pt of §2; am L 1980, c 264, §1(d); am L 1983, c 34, §2; am L 1998, c 2, §3; am L 2005, c 199, §1; am L 2023, c 13, §1]
