(KHNL) - Kim Coco Iwamoto is being called the nation's highest elected office holder, who also happens to be transgendered. In her first televised interview since the election, Iwamoto speaks exclusively to KHNL's Angela Keen on family, life and her future.
Kim Coco Iwamoto is open about being transgendered with those who know her. But during her campaign, she says the issue never came up publicly.
She says she chose to focus on the issues around her Board of Education campaign, instead of her gender.
