Amemiya suggested the city should also explore borrowing money to complete the project under the federal Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act, or TIFIA.
As polls showed Amemiya trailing Blangiardi in recent weeks, he tried to highlight his opponent’s ties to the Republican Party.
“Even if the undecided break 10-to-1 for Amemiya, he still loses to Blangiardi,” said Matthew Fitch, managing partner of MRG Research, which conducted the Civil Beat Poll with media partner HNN.
If Oahu voters want minor changes, more in leadership style than in policies or actions, Amemiya and Blangiardi are likely to apply their business expertise to the job in a way that recalibrates the tone and approach of the mayor’s office.
While the Blangiardi campaign focused on promoting Blangiardi as a decisive leader who had the experience to do the job of mayor, Amemiya took a different approach.
“When Kahuku beat St. Louis in the state championships and ended their dominant run, it gave hope to the rest of the schools in the state,” says Amemiya.
