Democrat Erik Hurt To Announces That He Will Be Running For Vanderburgh County Auditor 

Today local theater manager Erik Hurt announced he is running for Vanderburgh County Auditor. An Evansville native and proud Hoosier he is 2010 honors graduate from Central High School and attended the University of Evansville on a full-ride to study political science. An avid baseball fan, archer, and film buff he has spent the last five years managing for AMC movie theaters and is eager to help serve the community that he loves.

Eroic draws inspiration from his great-grandparents who immigrated from Poland following WW2 in order to find a better life in America and wants to help ensure that his home lives up to the promise and potential that his family risked everything to find. He believes that it is time for a change in Vanderburgh County and that its citizens deserve representatives, “who truly believe in the strength and the power of the American people.” He hopes to help restore faith in our institutions, our democracy, and ourselves and to combat a “culture of misinformation and mistrust that has been cultivated by Republican politicians.”

Erik seeks to use his years of business experience to help bring more efficiency to our local government as well as work to bring more transparency by utilizing modern technology to communicate to the people of Southwest Indiana in a clear and concise way.  He also hopes to use the platform to bring a larger voice for his and younger generations into local politics, urging young voters to make themselves heard, as well as to advocate for the policies and ideas that he believes will help move this community forward such as investing in modernized infrastructure and fighting to bring in jobs in renewable energy to “make this region a hub for powering the country.” 

Erik would like to thank his loving wife Caitlin for all of her encouragement throughout this process as well as his friends and family for their support. He wants to leave voters with a message that they have the power to bring about great change, referencing Kurt Vonnegut who wrote, “Wherever you go there is always a Hoosier doing something important there.” He looks forward to the journey ahead and can’t wait to meet fellow Hoosiers out on the trail and hopes they join him in helping to “build the future.”

Petersburg Man Arrested for Vicarious Sexual Gratification and Child Pornography

1

 

Pike County – Indiana State Police initiated a criminal investigation in October 2021 after receiving a cyber tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children concerning child pornography files being shared through Facebook by Jason Potts, 47, of Petersburg.

On January 20, Indiana State Police and the Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force served a search warrant at Potts’ residence in Petersburg. According to an affidavit of probable cause filed in the Pike Circuit Court, troopers discovered numerous media files that had been shared between Potts and female children under the age of 16. The investigation revealed the alleged incidents occurred between October 2020 and January 2022. After reviewing the investigation, the Pike County Circuit Court issued an arrest warrant for Potts.

Monday morning, January 31, at approximately 9:00, Indiana State Police and Pike County Sheriff’s Office arrested Potts at his residence without incident. He was transported to the Pike County Jail where he is currently being held on bond.

Arrested and Charges:

  • Jason W. Potts, Petersburg, IN
  1. Vicarious Sexual Gratification, Level 4 Felony
  2. 2 Counts of Child Solicitation, Level 5 Felony

Two Likely 2024 Republican Governor Candidates Have Impressive Political Warchest

Two Likely 2024 Republican Governor Candidates Have Impressive Political  Warchest

(It’s strongly rumored that the third Republican candidate for Governor of Indiana is arch-conservative Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita.  It’s also projected that Attorney Todd General Rokita will also be the top fundraiser in the Republican primary race for Governor of Indiana)

FORT WAYNE, Ind.  — Donors are already thinking about the 2024 race for Indiana governor even if most voters aren’t yet.

Two likely Republican gubernatorial candidates report around $1 million in cash on hand in mid-2021 reports posted Thursday on the Indiana Secretary of State’s website.

Lt. Governor Suzanne Crouch shows $1,195,473.56 on hand while Fort Wayne businessman Eric Doden reports $928,980.64. Doden already has announced he intends to run while Crouch has not but has stepped up her visibility. The Lt. Governor’s office deflected fundraising comments to the campaign office whose phone number is disconnected.

Meanwhile, the Doden camp sent a celebratory press release to WANE 15 to tout the 56 days ‘historic’ effort.

“Maci and I are honored and motivated by this incredible support,” Doden said in the release. “But we are just getting started. We will continue working hard to ensure our campaign is well positioned and resourced to win while embarking on our 92 county Main Street Tour.”

“The historic response we have received from leaders across Indiana has exceeded our high expectations for this campaign,” Doden campaign treasurer Rudy Yakym III said.

The Doden release says their campaign received an additional $4 million in financial commitments in later years for a total raise of $5 million for the 2024 race for governor.

When Governor Eric Holcomb launched his successful run for reelection, he had more than a $6 million war chest. He still has $1,509,965.03 on hand to run for a different office or contribute to a different campaign. He has not announced his next political step after his current term. Indiana law prohibits him from running again for governor.

Republican Attorney General Todd Rokita is widely seen as another possible entry in the governor’s race. He reports $677,000 on hand at the end of 2020.

On the Democratic side, former Senator Joe Donnelly and former Indianapolis Mayor Joe Hogsett have disbanded their campaigns while former Superintendent of Public Instruction Jennifer McCormick has $40,876.94 on hand but did not file a report in 2021.

No Democrats have announced a 2024 run for Indiana governor as of yet.  This is a developing story.
