It is no surprise that Rokita has a significant early lead. He has twice run and won statewide for secretary of state, as well as serving as a congressman.

HOWEY INDIANAPOLIS – There couldn’t be a more emphatic contrast when it comes to major party chairs Kyle Hupfer of the Re- publicans and John Zody of the Democrats. Hupfer is essentially undefeated in statewide races and federal seats beyond the 1st and 7th CDs. Zody has been shut out, save for three Indiana House seats and a Senate pickup this cycle, coming after a GOP shakeup in 2016 that brought about the Donald Trump/Mike Pence dy- namic that has dominated ever since.

  • Indiana State Senate
    A report to supporters and members of Indiana Business for Responsive Government (IBRG), the Indiana Chamber of Commerce, and allied organizations. This report will be updated as additional election results are received in the hours and days following. Another Election for the Record Books in Indiana Indiana Business for Responsive Government (IBRG), the non-partisan political action program of the Indiana Chamber of Commerce, scored a very successful general election. 48 of 49 IBRG- endorsed candidates facing opposition were victorious, including Republicans and Democrats. Forty-three (43) additional endorsed candidates did not face general election challenges. Twelve (12) new legislators won with IBRG-endorsements. IBRG was significantly-engaged in support of six (6) top-target challenger and open-seat races, as well as successfully defending twelve (12) pro-economy incumbents seriously challenged with defeat. In one of the most dramatic turn of events in years, Republicans won significant battles for state legislative seats across the state to expand their “quorum-proof majorities.” These victories were particularly surprising to those working for months closely in campaigns and candidates, as Indiana’s public opinion environment on issues and views of incumbents was - right up until Election Day - about as bad an environment for Republicans and incumbents as seen in years. This marks the third election cycle in a row that Republicans have expanded their margins in the Indiana House and Senate. The Republicans won a net two (2) seat gain in the Indiana House of Representatives to achieve a 71-29 margin. Four (4) incumbent legislators lost reelection bids in the House (one Republican and three Democrats).

  • State of the Statehouse
    hile elections sometime deliver results that are unexpected (the list is a long one; I’m sure you have your favorite upsets), there are also certain givens leading up to each voting responsibility. Two at the top of the list are: 1. Politicians, or maybe more accurately the people involved in the Wpolitical process, will repeatedly tell us why any election is important. That refrain is amplified in 2010, mostly because it determines who holds the mighty gavel – and pen – the following year. 2. A sea of change is coming, with the party out of power using that mantra to help regain control. The adage applies this time around, but it’s a different type of change than what was experienced two years ago or during the memorable mid-term election of 1994. The Indiana Chamber’s nonpartisan political action committee, Indiana Business for Responsive Government (IBRG), has a focused mission: help elect thoughtful candidates to the Indiana General Assembly who support pro-economy, pro-jobs legislation and initiatives. Jeff Brantley, with 20 years of experience in Indiana in a variety of roles, leads that effort as vice president of political affairs. Kevin Brinegar, Chamber president, has been with this organization for 18 years and involved in the legislative/political process for 30 years. Brinegar uses two key words – power and authority – in addressing topic No. 1. The 2010 election, of course, coincides with the 2010 census. Following the annual people count, the political party that controls the House and Senate in Indiana (and many other states), has the “power and authority to redraw district boundaries.
