In this episode, Scott goes solo to look at the results of the May 7th primary. I’ll start in Monroe County, visiting the results of the County Commissioner’s races. We spoke with all five Democratic candidates, and the results were not what we expected.From there, we’ll zoom out to examine the statehouse contests. There are several races of interest, including many friends of the podcast. I’ve got my eye on several races, from the Ohio River to Lake Michigan.From those Lake Michigan shores in Indiana’s 1st district, we’ll set the table for all 9 of Indiana’s congressional races, ending right back where we started - in Indiana’s 9th district.Having run a full lap around the state, we’ll look at the statewide races - for Governor and US Senator.Subscribe athttps://scottaaronrogers.substack.comhttps://www.heraldtimesonline.com/elections/results/2024-05-07/indiana/18105/monroe-countyhttps://www.indystar.com/elections/results/2024-05-07/indiana/state-househttps://www.indystar.com/elections/results/2024-05-07/indiana/state-senatehttps://stateaffairs.com/indiana/elections/indiana-congress-election-results/Follow on social media:https://www.facebook.com/hooslefthttps://hoosleft.bsky.socialhttps://www.youtube.com/@hooslefthttps://www.tiktok.com/@hooslefthttps://www.instagram.com/scottrog78/https://www.threads.net/@scottrog78https://hoosier.social/@scottrog78And once again, subscribe athttps://scottaaronrogers.substack.com/subscribe
