Indiana Republicans have nominated Lt. Gov. Eric Holcomb to replace Mike Pence as candidate for Governor of Indiana this Fall

Four candidates were on a short list to become the next Governor of Indiana, but only one could be selected.

Lt. Gov. Eric Holcomb was one of the candidates. He was selected by a 22 member committee to replace current Gov. Mike Pence on the November ballot.

Governor Pence dropped out of the Governor’s race after accepting Donald Trump’s offer to become the vice president.

The three other candidates who entered the race to replace Pence include Susan Brooks, Todd Rokita, and Jim Tomes.

Holcomb will run against Democrat John Gregg who lost by a small margin to Gov. Pence in 2012.
