Now the way I’m reading the bits posted here, it sounds like HI is banning political donations from corporations to state and local races.

That's what I thought reading the OP. I had already partially written a response pointing out that Hawaii's action had nothing to do with Citizens United if it related to political donations.

But then I looked it up - and it appears that it provides that corporations don't have the power to engage in political speech to promote or defeat candidates or proposals in elections:

Overwhelming odds are that it will be held unconstitutional, for all the reasons we've talked about on the boards.
