Croccifixio "Cross" Makani Crabbe (born August 12, 1998) was a Democratic member of the Hawaii State Senate. He represented the state senate's 22nd district, which became vacant upon the resignation of Maile Shimabukuro in May 2024.[1]

On July 30, 2024, Crabbe was appointed to the seat by Governor Josh Green.[2][3] Crabbe served the remainder of his predecessor's term which ended on November 5, 2024.[1]

Career

[edit]

Prior to elected office, Crabbe served as office manager for Representative Cedric Gates.[1] He was also a case manager and facility monitor for Kealahou West Oahu and worked for various nonprofits.[4] Crabbe was appointed to the Hawaii Senate by Governor Josh Green in July 2024 after Green previously stated that he would not appoint a successor prior to the primary election due to concerns on inappropriate election influence.[5]
