Hawaii's 1st congressional district is a congressional district in the U.S. state of Hawaii . The district is located entirely on the island of Oahu , encompassing the urban areas of the City and County of Honolulu , a consolidated city-county that includes Oahu's central plains and southern shores, including the towns of Aiea , Mililani , Pearl City , Waipahu and Waimalu . The district is smaller and more densely populated than the 2nd Congressional District (which includes the rest of the state).
The district is currently represented by Democrat Ed Case .
History
When Hawaii and Alaska were admitted to the Union in 1959, both new states were granted one at-large Representative to Congress pending the next United States Census . In the reapportionment following the 1960 U.S. Census , Hawaii was entitled to a second U.S. Representative. Instead of creating two congressional districts, the state continued to elect its Representatives at-large. Two representatives were first elected in 1962 and Hawaii was first represented by two U.S. Representatives on January 2, 1963 upon the convening of the 88th Congress .
The 1st Congressional District was created in 1971 when Hawaii began electing its representatives from districts instead of electing at-large Representative statewide.
