The Chamber Interviews Candidates for Local & State Office

0


During each election cycle, The Chamber of Commerce of Southwest Indiana is actively engaged in the election process by conducting surveys with candidates running for local and state office.

This year, volunteer members of the Government Affairs Committee conducted one-on-one video-taped interviews with candidates in select contested local and state legislative races. Interviews were conducted with candidates seeking the office of Vanderburgh County Assessor, Vanderburgh County Commissioner, Vanderburgh County Council, Indiana House of Representatives – District 74, 75, 76, 77 and 78, as well as Indiana Senate – District 49.

The primary purpose of the interviews is to inform our membership and the general public on positions of candidates running for office. A secondary purpose is to provide The Chamber’s political action committee, Jobs for Southwestern Indiana (JPAC), with additional information for potential endorsements. JPAC will publicly announce its endorsements in late September.
