The upcoming Election Day in Indiana and Kentucky features important races and ballot measures for voters to consider. In Indiana, U.S. Senator Mike Braun is running for governor, addressing issues such as the medical use of marijuana and gun violence prevention. Democrat Jennifer McCormick is also vying for the gubernatorial seat as the state’s first female governor, focusing on women’s reproductive rights and education.
In Kentucky, Secretary of State Michael Adams reported that over 200,000 Kentuckians participated in early voting, with over 792,000 voters participating in the general election. The state will also vote on two major constitutional amendments, one concerning non-citizens voting and the other related to school choice programs. Jefferson County voters will also choose new Board of Education members, with some races being contested.
For those who still need to vote, TARC is offering free rides on all routes on Election Day, and ride-sharing services like Uber and Lyft are providing discounted rides to polling places. Both states have important decisions to make, and the outcome of these races and ballot measures will shape the future of these communities.
