Sir, you are going to be THE FINEST mayor this state has ever experienced~

Trust me, you are the type of candidate that we folks are STARVED for.

You are humble, you have a kind countenance, very well educated and yet you do not "talk down" to folks but you speak with and to folks, and with such common sense style. You don't use the biggest words you can just to make a flashy show of your education. You speak to us as if we were neighbors, out chatting in each others' front yards or… Continue

Just want to say someone yelled into my window today (your magnet is on
my car) that everyone else is corrupt and you are exactly what we need
and gave me a thumbs up. Keep going! We do need you.

Electing Panos is important to me and my family. Events such as these
are valuable. I got two phone calls, an email and a personal visit today
in my shop from folks who were there. All expressed interest in helping
Panos. One desires to hold a “talk story” event at his Diamond head
home.

Mahalo and Aloha,

I believe many of us WANT to elect you Mayor of our great city,,,,and
would look forward to hearing from your staff re our requests to help..........Please
reassure us that once in office, our voices will in fact be heard, and
responded to,,,,yes? :-)

Stay well, and be safe,

Kali G.

Keep up the good fight! I am trying to tell everyone about you all the
time. I enjoyed listening to you at our little subdivision forum 2 weeks
ago too.

Thanks,

I agree with your thinking, the Islands are so fragile it would be a
shame to turn Honolulu into a New York City look alike. As far as public


transportation I find the bus system in Honolulu excellent, even to the North Shore.

1. Can the fragile and struggling Oahu tourism economy survive 10 years of negative impact as dusty, noisy, ugly construction is carried out on the rail?



2. With billions in underground infrastructure in need of repair, traffic lights in need of synchronization, roads in disrepair and education at substandard levels, do we have any business spending $6+ billion on a rail system that only serves a few?



3. Can our residents handle the compounding tax burden that is inevitable to… Continue

Hi Mr. Panos,



This is great to hear...we were happy to see all the supporters around the hale today.

My husband and I appreciate your "summary cards" so we can continue to get the word out to our contacts who all agree that:



YOU BETTER WIN!



I must admit to you that over the years, we have become very jaded about the folks we elect to office.

They all sound so good in the beginning but somehow change in that office as the months go by. Please do not be one of… Continue

It is so evident that the politicians in office today have created the problems and financial shortfalls that have plagued Oahu during the last few years. Honolulu is deteriorating through the neglect that our present mayor has inflicted on our island. There are problems with sewer and water line breaks with many of our roads mired in a state of unacceptable condition.



It is time that we should reflect on the incredible life and achievements of John Wilson, a former Mayor of Honolulu.… Continue

Honolulu faces a new threat. The threat is from crushing new taxes. Homeowners will get sharply higher property taxes if rail is built. And renters will pay higher rents because landlords will have to charge more (due to higher taxes). Rail will be expensive to build, expensive to maintain, and expensive to run. That is why taxes will go up sharply.



And the sad part is this: no one has shown that traffic will much improve. Rail will take passengers away from buses, with no improvement… Continue

How much has been spent on planning, engineering and promoting Honolulu’s rail to date? What are the sources of the money and who got it? Normally this information should be at city’s HonoluluTransit.org

website but not for Honolulu. We only

know bits and pieces as reported in newspapers that did Freedom of Information

Act inquiries.

Who decided and why to let contracts out for a system that has not cleared the environmental…
