FIVE THOUSAND, FIVE HUNDRED MAUI VOTERS TURNED OUT FOR LAST NIGHT'S DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS. ONE UPCOUNTRY LISTENER TOLD US THE LINE THERE WAS A THOUSAND FEET LONG. (Kimo-Bite 2 - 6 seconds). JAMES "KIMO" APANA WAS AT THE BALDWIN HIGH SCHOOL GATHERING LAST NIGHT. HIS CANDIDATE, HILLAR CLINTON, ONLY CAPTURED ABOUT SIX PERCENT OF THE VOTE - MEANING HAWAII-BORN BARRACK OBAMA WON THE LION'S SHARE - AND IS ASSURED AT LEAST 14 OF HAWAII'S DELEGATES.

THE U.S. NAVY STILL HASN'T DECIDED WHTHER OR NOT THE SEAS SOUTHWEST OF HAWAII ARE TOO ROUGH TO TRY TO PICK OFF THAT WAYWARD SPY SATELLITE TONIGHT. IF THE MISSION IS A GO, IT SHOULD HAPPEN IN ABOUT 30 MINUTES FROM NOW.

DEMOCRATIC PARTY OFFICIALS IN HAWAII HAD EXPECTED TO BREAK THE OLD RECORD OF FIVE THOUSAND PEOPLE SHOWING UP FOR LAST NIGHTS CAUCUS. BUT THEY DIDN'T EXPECT THAT NUMBER FROM MAUI, ALONE. MORE THAN FIFTY-FIVE HUNDRED VOTERS JAMMED INTO CAUCUS SITES HERE - AND ANOTHER THIRTY-TWO-THOUSAND AT VOTING SITES ACROSS THE STATE. BARRACK OBAMA WAS A BIG WINNER, CLAIMING AT LEAST 14 OF THE STATE'S 20 DELAGATES.

IN ABOUT A HALF-HOUR FROM NOW, THE FULL MOON WILL RISE - WITH A PIECE MISSING. HAWAII WILL BE ON THE TAIL END OF WHAT WAS A TOTAL LUNAR ECLIPSE FOR MOST OF NORTH AMERICA. THE NEXT ONE WON'T HAPPEN UNTIL DECEMBER OF TWO THOUSAND AND TEN.

MAUI COUNTY WEATHER - Mostly clear nights and mornings. Partly cloudy afternoons and evenings with isolated showers. Lows MID 60S, HIGHS AROUND 80. Variable sea breezes.
