Indiana Election Division

An Indiana congressman who was rejected by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi as the top Republican for the committee investigating last year’s U.S. Capitol insurrection is fending off an effort to remove his name from this year's election ballot.

The Senate committee's approval comes despite objections from Secretary of State Connie Lawson's office.

Write in candidates in Indiana have to be certified by the Secretary of State's office for those votes to count.
