Island Conversations host Sherry Bracken wanted to talk with Hawaii County Mayor Harry Kim today, Sunday, August 9, to get his reaction to the Saturday Primary in which he finished third, and therefore will see his Mayor job end on December 7, 2020.  But as they talked, Mayor Kim revealed that Gov. David Ige, after declaring reinstatement of the interisland travel quarantine on Thursday, told the Counties  that each County is now responsible for developing its own rules around exemptions and tracking those in quarantine and more.  So the conversation is about all of the above, including what the Mayor sees as his legacy.
