Hawaii: Petitioners 20K+ signatures short of a Maui Mayor recall

Petitioners are quite far away from a recall effort against Maui Mayor Michael Victorino. They need 21586 signatures. They handed in 3211 signatures, and only 1564 were deemed valid. They do have 20 days to hand in the other 20,022 signatures to get on the ballot. The recall is over Victorino's support for measures designed to combat the spread of the coronavirus pandemic. Petitioners have also claimed some other issues (water needs/housing/transparency), but the story suggests that it is clearly a COVID recall. 

I do not know of a single recall that has gotten to the ballot in Hawaii.
