According to this story, Hawaii elections officials are thinking about holding an all-mail ballot election to fill the expected future vacancy in the U.S. House, district 1. Congressman Neil Abercrombie has said he will resign soon so that he can campaign full-time for Governor in 2010.

Hawaii’s elections office is trying to save money, and feels mail ballots would save money. Last time the state held a special U.S. House election, it cost $2,000,000.
