Tavares served as the Mayor of Maui from January 2007 to January 2011.[1] She unsuccessfully sought a second four-year term in office in the 2010 Maui mayoral election.[1][2] BiographyEarly lifeTavares was born in 1943 in Hana, Hawaii, in eastern Maui, to Hannibal and Harriet Tavares.[3] Her father, Hannibal Tavares, served as the mayor of Maui from 1979 until 1991, the longest tenure of any Maui mayor to date.[4][5][6][9] Tavares is the descendant of Japanese and Portuguese immigrants who settled in Hawaii.[7] Her mother, Harriet, is of Japanese descent and her father was of Portuguese descent.[7] She attended both Kaunoa Elementary School and Maul High School, before graduating from St Anthony High School.[3] Tavares earned a bachelor's degree in education from the University of Hawaii at Manoa in 1967.[1] She also received a fifth-year professional diploma in education from the University of Hawaii at Manoa in 1970.[1] CareerTavares worked in Hawaiian public schools as a teacher, counselor and athletic director from 1967 to 1982.[1][3] She was the program director of the Maui Community College (MCC) Upward Bound program from 1983 to 1989.[1][3] Tavares served as the director of the Department of Parks and Recreation for Maui County from 1989 to 1995.[1][3] Maui County CouncilTavares was first elected to the Maui County Council in 1996. She served on the Council, representing the Upcountry Seat, from 1997 until 2006.[1] She was elected to the Maui County Council in five separate elections.[1] Mayor of MauiTavares was elected mayor of Maui in the 2006 election. She defeated incumbent Mayor Alan Arakawa and was sworn into office on January 2, 2007.[1] Tavares ran for reelection to a second four-year term in 2010.[1] The primary election was held on September 18. Tavares narrowly won, taking 7,307 votes, or 25.4% of the total.[8] She defeated her nearest opponent, former Maui Mayor Alan Arakawa, by 268 votes.[8] Tavares and Arakawa automatically advanced to the general election as the two top vote-getters in the primary.[8] Electric contractor Randy Piltz placed fourth with 5,602 votes (19.4%); Chris Hart placed fifth with 3,035 (10.5%); Maui Council member Sol Kaho'ohalahala came in sixth place with 2,912 votes (10.1%); businessman Marc Hodges placed seventh with 1,761 votes (6.1%).[8] Five other candidates earned a combined 1.5% of the vote.[8] Tavares won 11 of Maui's 39 election precincts in the 2010 primary.[8] Most of these precincts were in Central Maui.[8] Former Mayor Alan Arakawa won 23 precincts in South Maui and West Maui.[8] Tavares faced Arakawa in the general election on November 2, 2010.[8] The election was a rematch of the 2006 Maui mayoral election, in which Tavares defeated Arakawa.[8][9][10] Tavares did not fare as well in the rematch, becoming one of the only Democrats in Hawaii to lose reelection to a Republican.[2] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 {{cite news|first=|last=|title=Mayoral candidate profiles for Maui|url=http://www.lahainanews.com/page/content.detail/id/501288/Mayoral-candidate-profiles-for-Maui.html?nav=19|work=Lahaina News|publisher=|date=September 16, 2010|accessdate=September 24, 2010|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20101206085716/http://www.lahainanews.com/page/content.detail/id/501288/Mayoral-candidate-profiles-for-Maui.html?nav=19|archivedate=December 6, 2010|df=}} 2. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.hawaiinewsnow.com/Global/story.asp?S=13435013|title=Arakawa defeats Tavares in race for Maui Mayor|publisher=Hawaii News Now|date=November 3, 2010|accessdate=November 20, 2010}} 3. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite news|first=|last=|title=Resolution No 06-137 Expressing Appreciation to Councilmember Charmaine Tavares|url=http://www.co.maui.hi.us/documents/County%20Clerks/Resolutions/2006/Reso%2006-137.PDF|work=Maui County Council|publisher=|date=December 19, 2006|accessdate=September 24, 2010|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110616012802/http://www.co.maui.hi.us/documents/County%20Clerks/Resolutions/2006/Reso%2006-137.PDF|archivedate=June 16, 2011|df=}} 4. ^{{cite news|first=Jill|last=Engledow|title=A Decade on Maui: On MNKO's 10th anniversary, we look back at how our island has changed|url=http://www.mauimagazine.net/Maui-Magazine/July-2006/A-Decade-on-Maui/index.php?cparticle=5&siarticle=4|work=Maui Magazine|publisher=|date=July 1, 2006|accessdate=September 24, 2010|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20111008142136/http://www.mauimagazine.net/Maui-Magazine/July-2006/A-Decade-on-Maui/index.php?cparticle=5&siarticle=4|archivedate=October 8, 2011|df=}} 5. ^{{cite news|first=Tom|last=Blackburn=Rodriguez|title=Talking Story with Maui's New Mayor |url=http://www.maui-style.com/Articles/Celebrity%20Articles/Charamaine%20Tavares.pdf|work=Maui Style|publisher= |year=2006|accessdate=September 27, 2010}} 6. ^{{cite news|first=Timothy|last=Hurley|title=Growth top issue in Maui races |url=http://the.honoluluadvertiser.com/special/election2002/2002/Oct/23/ln/ln11a.html |work=Honolulu Advertiser|publisher= |date=October 23, 2002|accessdate=September 27, 2010}} 7. ^1 2 {{cite news|first=Gary T.|last=Kubota|title=Maui effort honors 2 ethnic groups|url=http://www.allbusiness.com/society-social-assistance-lifestyle/religion-spirituality/14083372-1.html|work=Honolulu Star-Bulletin |publisher=AllBusiness.com |date=March 10, 2010|accessdate=September 27, 2010}} 8. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 {{cite news|first=Brian|last=Perry |title=Tavares' strength in Central Maui; Arakawa strongholds in South and West Maui |url=http://www.mauinews.com/page/content.detail/id/540731/Tavares--strength-in-Central-Maui--Arakawa-strongholds-in-South-and-West-Maui.html?nav=10 |work=Maui News |publisher= |date=September 20, 2010|accessdate=September 24, 2010}} 9. ^{{cite news|first=Gary T.|last=Kabuto|title=Maui mayor's race shaping up to be a re-match|url=http://www.staradvertiser.com/elections/2010/primary/Maui_mayors_race_shaping_up_to_be_a_re-match.html|work=Honolulu Star-Advertiser |publisher= |date=September 18, 2010|accessdate=September 24, 2010}} 10. ^{{cite news|first=Mari-Ela|last=David|title=Tavares, Arakawa to square off in General Election |url=http://www.hawaiinewsnow.com/Global/story.asp?S=13178929 |work=Maui News |publisher= |date=September 19, 2010|accessdate=September 24, 2010}} External links
