Hawaii's overall Democratic lean makes an R+2.7 presidential result here an outlier worth watching. The district's competitive margin reflects shifting voter behavior in a state where most legislative seats see little general-election contest.

Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 29.2 points in 2008 and a Republican high of 2.7 points in 2024. Between 2020 and 2024 the district moved 7.3 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 2.7 points.

A population of 31,211, a 32% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $91,236 describe the district. The district's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of State House District 41 and State House District 38.

The state-house districts whose fingerprint — 2000–2024 trajectory, demographics, ancestry, religion — sits closest to this one, and why.

Twin score (0–100) = weighted cosine between tier-standardized fingerprints: presidential margins 2000–2024 with 12-yr trend and elasticity, ACS income, age, education, population and race, top reported ancestries, and religious adherence — chips name the closest-shared dimensions and the widest gap.
