Indiana early voting already eclipsed 500,000, elections chief says

Indiana Secretary of State Diego Morales said Wednesday there is strong early voter turnout across the state — with more than half a million Hoosiers already casting their ballots.

“With Election Day quickly approaching, we’re excited to see so many Hoosiers actively participating in the election process,” Morales said. “I’m calling on every eligible Hoosier who hasn’t voted yet to make their plan to vote and ensure their voice is heard in this important election. As Hoosiers, we have a responsibility to shape the future of our communities, our state, and our country.”

There are 4,841,433 registered voters in Indiana.

With just 11 days left before Election Day, it appears the state will eclipse early voting for 2022.

That year, total “absentee” voting reached 713,421. That includes in-person votes cast early, at 542,709, and votes cast by mail, at 158,822. The rest were by fax, email or traveling board.
