It's Your Business: Vote as if Your Community Depends on It (Because It Does)
8 May 2024
Tuesday, May 7, is Indiana’s Primary Election, with early voting leading up to it.
Your vote matters! Our recent local elections have seen some candidates or issues win by around 100 or fewer votes (!!)
However, this year’s early voting has seen low turnout. Only 3.3% of Monroe County’s 91,355 registered voters had voted as of Wednesday, May 1, reflecting low voter turnout trends across the state, according to Monroe County Election Central. So, relatively few voters can have an outsized impact in our election.
