Name recognition may have helped career politicians Peter Apo and Lei Ahu Isa stand out in a crowded field for the single seat open for the at-large trustee race for the Office of Hawaiian Affairs. But the race appeared too close to call after the first announced results Saturday night, with incumbent Kelii Akina, who has served as trustee since 2016, holding a nearly 7,000-vote lead over Ahu Isa, and Apo just behind her. The two top candidates will go on to the general election.
