ABOUT

TK Wehrsig

My name is TK Wehrsig. I am the son of Sally and Jerry Wehrsig and the father of Toa Wehrsig.

I don't have degrees from big schools or great jobs to brag about. If there is anything for me to brag and be proud of, it's being a father. My son has driven me to new heights and has been my inspiration since he was born. What I do have is proven results of listening to my community, Interacting with them, and helping most of them through some of the worst times in their life. I work everyday without pay to make my community better. The only payment I seek, is to honor my parent's memory, who has both given to the community and have since passed on. And honor my family name.

I have been a janitor at the Hawaii Community College for 13 of my 15 years working for the UH. I know what it's like to be looked down on and treated differently. I wear my heart on my sleeve for the world to see and have been told I am often "too honest." My dad once told me I could never be a politician because I was too honest with people about who I am and how I feel. I have a past ... and if you look for negative things to discredit my character, I am sure you will find something.

But let me say this ... there are things from my past that I am not proud of, but I am no longer ashamed of them. Each experience in my life good or bad taught me a lesson. Each experience showed me who I wanted and who I didn't want to be and lead me to the man who stands before you now ... a man who looks to bring value to his community.

The one thing I have shown this community is that, I am not afraid to stand up in the face of injustice. I work day and night to make our community better not just for my son, but for your sons and daughters, grandkids, and great-grandkids. I often tell my friends "WE the uncles and aunties now! Let our uncles and aunties rest and past the torch." Mahalo to them! They kept our community safe and now it's our turn.

I am running because I see so many things broken. I am going to attempt to find out why and see what we can do about it. I am starting at an entrance level of governmental legislation, so I can learn how best to serve from a government seat. I am not a politician. Iʻm a man who grew up on this island and has proven I'm not afraid to put myself out there for a better tomorrow. Of whom, because of a Facebook group, knows first hand the community concerns and wants.

I humbly ask for your support. Even if it is just telling people you support my run and will vote for me and to do the same. No matter how divided we may be on some issues, Iʻm sure we are unified that we all want a safe and affordable community. Fill in that box next to my name and let's see what we can do!

Mahalo!
