Election Day is here, and I hope you are planning to vote. I read recently that we are likely to have less than 20 percent of Terre Haute voters casting ballots in today’s election — we have to do better than that if this city is to keep moving forward.
Remember to bring a state-issued photo i.d. to the polls with you today. If you have questions about your voting status or the new i.d. requirement, call Voter Registration at 462-3393.
It’s always a good idea to look at a list of all of the candidates before you go to the polls. To see Democrat and Republican sample ballots, check out the lower right corner of the Vigo County Clerk’s main web page:

If you live in the 4th District and have questions about my approach to representing you on the City Council, please contact me by phone or email — I want to hear from you!
The polls close at 6:00 p.m. Thanks for your support!

1It would be really nice to see a sample ballot as you mentioned. I went to the Vigo County site, but there was no link at the lower right. I tried clicking the election tab on the left, and that brought up a blank page with the word “elections” on top. I would really like to have a source of election information on candidates, and a sample ballot would be a good place to start.

2Hi David,
I composed the Vote Today post on the eve of election, not long before midnight. The sample ballots were still up then — apparently they were removed from the Clerk’s web page on Election Day. To me, that’s the most important day for basic info like who is running for what office to be readily available.
Thanks for your comment; sorry if my answer isn’t very satisfying.
