Richard Bissen for Mayor endorsed by the Maui Chamber of Commerce COMPAC

The Bissen Movement announced the Maui Chamber of Commerce (COMPAC) has endorsed Richard Bissen for Maui County mayor.

Based on his answers on the COMPAC questionnaire, as well as an interview, Bissen “received the highest score in his race.” Bissen was informed of the endorsement via a phone call from the Chamber’s president and by personal letter.

In the letter, the Chamber stated “…the candidates with the highest score who are deemed business-friendly and whose responses were most congruent with the Chamber’s values and positions became the candidate the Chamber is endorsing.”

A campaign press release states that Bissen is grateful to The Maui Chamber of Commerce and for the prior endorsements he has received this year from other organizations: Hawaiʻi Government Employees Association and their approximately 43,000 members; Iron Workers Union Local 625; Retired 2nd Circuit Court Judges of Maui County, Honorable Judge Eric Romanchak, Honorable Judge Harriet Holt, Honorable Judge Artemio Baxa, Honorable Judge Geronimo Valdriz, Honorable Judge Doug McNish, Honorable Judge Joe Cardoza, Honorable Judge Shackley Raffetto and Honorable Judge Richard Komo.
