Issue #324

From Dubois County

Happy Monday, Reader,

What do you think about closing down primaries? Indiana has open primaries now, meaning you can vote for either party regardless of your own affiliation to choose a candidate to represent a seat in the primary. So you could be a Republican and cast a ballot in the Democratic races or vice versa.

But some legislators are pushing for Indiana to restrict voting to party members only.

There is a story in today's headlines about this.

From Dubois County with love.
