Despite Hawaii's reliably Democratic lean statewide, this state house district recorded a razor-thin D+2.4 presidential margin in 2024, making it an unusual competitive pressure point in an otherwise lopsided electoral landscape.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 66.5 points in 1964 and a Republican high of 13.5 points in 1972. Between 2020 and 2024 the district moved 7.1 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 2.4 points.
A population of 34,791, a 15% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $90,180 describe the district. The district's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of State House District 36 and State House District 29.
