Radio Script for Maui TV News on KAOI Radio - January 15, 2010

FROM THE VISIONARY RADIO NEWS CENTER, I'M JEFF KING WITH MAUI TV NEWS.

TODAY IS THE EIGHTH FURLOUGH FRIDAY - AND STILL THERE'S NO DEAL IN SIGHT. NEGOTIATORS FROM THE TEACHERS' UNION AND THE GOVERNOR'S OFFICE HAVE NOT SET A NEW MEETING DATE YET.

ALSO, WE DON'T HAVE THE DATE - BUT WE DO HAVE THE PRICE FOR THE SPECIAL ELECTION TO COMPLETE THE TERM OF CONGRESSMAN NIEL ABERCROMBIE. IT WILL COST THE STATE ONE POINT THREE MILLION DOLLARS TO FIND SOMEONE TO FILL THE SEAT FOR AS LITTLE AS 90 DAYS BEFORE THE GENERAL ELECTION. ABERCROMBIE ANNOUNCED IN DECEMBER THAT HE WAS RESIGNING HIS SEAT IN THE U.S. HOUSE TO DEDICATE A FULL-TIME EFFORT ON RUNNING FOR THE JOB OF GOVERNOR OF HAWAII.

ISLAND WEATHER, TODAY IS THE FIRST DAY SINCE JANUARY THIRD THAT THERE ARE NO HIGH SURF WARNINGS, WATCHES OR ADVISORIES FOR MAUI COUNTY. ALL WERE CANCELLED THIS MORNING - BUT LOOK FOR ANOTHER TO BE ISSUED LIKELY TOMORROW AS A NEW NORTHWEST SWELL HEADS OUR WAY. TONIGHT, EXPECT LIGHT WINDS, CLEAR SKIES AND COOL TEMPERATURES IN THE MID TO UPPER 50S. TOMORROW, MOSTLY SUNNY WITH HIGHS IN THE MIDDLE 80S.

FROM THE VISIONARY RADIO NEWS CENTER FOR MAUI TV NEWS, I'M JEFF KING.
