Haw. Rev. Stat. § 11-2.8: Publication of election notices.

Notwithstanding any other statute, law, charter provision, ordinance, or rule to the contrary, whenever an election officer is required to issue a public notice in a statewide or county publication, the publication requirement shall be deemed satisfied upon the submission of the notice to the publication; provided that the notice is also conspicuously posted on the website associated with the election officer. The inadvertent failure of a publication to publish a notice in a timely manner shall not invalidate any legal consequences or actions associated with the notice.
