In 2005, Bissen was nominated by Governor Linda Lingle to serve as a judge for the second judicial circuit.[3] He was renominated for his judgeship by Governor David Ige in 2015, and retired from the judiciary in December of 2021.[4]
In January 2022, Bissen announced his candidacy for Mayor of Maui County.[5] Bissen placed first in the primaries, receiving approximately 34.7 percent of the vote, with incumbent Mike Victorino finishing in second place.[6] Maui County elections are non-partisan, with the top two candidates moving on to the general election. Bissen defeated Victorino in the general election, receiving approximately 61.4 percent of the vote.[7]
