League of Women Voters files ethics complaint against Indiana Secretary of State

The Indiana chapter of the League of Women Voters filed an ethics complaint earlier this week against Secretary of State Diego Morales, accusing the elected official of using his position for self-promotion.

The two-page complaint, shared with the Indiana Capital Chronicle, points to several communications distributed by the office, saying that Morales’ name is printed larger than the name of the office.

“The information, though pertinent to the Office of the Secretary of State, appears to be more of a campaign ploy for the Secretary of State himself even though he’s not on the ballot,” said the letter, which is signed by LWV chapter president Linda Hanson.

“It appears to be a gimmick to use taxpayer money to keep a name in front of the public and other individuals in official places rather than provide information that may be helpful to 92 County Election Boards,” it continued.
