This is all the money behind State of Hawaiʻi — $55,099,975 in reported contributions — set beside its decisions. Read it as a question, never an accusation. Real estate is the slice we have traced deepest (donor → parcel → recorded sale), but it is only 4% of the giving; the larger money is contractors, tourism & hotels, unions, and others — those traces deepen as the records open. Where any interest funds the seat and holds business before it, that is the pair to watch.
The real-estate slice — the deepest-traced loop
$2,278,331 · 4% of givingReal-estate interests gave $2,278,331 to this council and also build and sell land here. Statewide property transactions span all four counties; the per-island sales extracts are sourced county by county (Maui in hand). The statewide giving and contracts are shown.
☾☀ Curse-breaker. Under tonight’s Hilo, the path to pono is the same on every island: the official can disclose real-estate giving before a land-use or budget vote, recuse where the interest is direct, or decide in the open; the interest can say plainly what it seeks. Aloha is the ask — the record is the light.
