How interesting. He was a serious piece of that system for a decade.
Well no, he wasn’t really. He raised his own money to get elected mayor in the beginning. He was an unknown and not a party player. Do some research. He was truly a public servant, not a party shill, pick, or servant.
If by running as an independent, he’s responsible for putting a Democrat in charge of our elections, he will be forever a pariah in Indiana politics!!
Beau Bayh is not his father! Evan was an honorable SOS then Governor. I voted for him for Governor…today’s Democrats are really horrible and cannot be trusted with ANY elective office
John S., Why can’t Beau be an honorable SOS first? What were Evan’s qualifications for the SOS job? Beau was in the Marines, which seems pretty honorable.
Do you know or ever talk with any Democrats ?? Your comment is xenophobic MAGA tripe .
That blue wave is gonna hit like a ton of bricks, John. Hopefully the Dems can rescue you from $5 a gallon gas
Ballard’s suggestion is interesting. Primaries were made public in order to bring the candidate selection process out into the open, and let individual members of the respective parties have a direct voice in the selection of the party’s candidates, as opposed to the closed convention selection which gave us the likes of Rokita and Morales and Beckwith.
What the public gets is party members to staff the polling stations, for which the public foots the tab. But the government also gets school board elections handled in the primary.
I tend to agree the parties should be free to establish their own selection process; that’s a right of association embeded in the First Amendment. If more people want a voice, they should join the parties and be involved.
We’d just need to find a way to do school boards. We could do them in the general election, but that might make for longer ballots than voters are willing to read…if anyone reads them now.
Love having independent Greg Ballard in the mix for this race. Would love to see him defeat all these party hacks.
I got a chance to sign his petition! It does seem like a long haul to get a third party of the ballot.
