INDIANAPOLIS – The Indiana Secretary of State’s Office is proud to be part of the Indiana State Fair. Secretary Diego Morales invites Hoosiers to come out and enjoy the first $3 Thursday.
The Secretary of State’s Office is the sponsor of all three $3 Thursdays (August 3, 10, 17.) During those Thursdays, the office will have tents located at the 38th Street main entrance and North entrance where staff will be encouraging Hoosiers to register to vote and answering questions about voting and elections. The team will have iPads on hand so eligible Hoosiers can update their registration and get registered to vote on the spot. The Secretary of State’s Office will also be welcoming local sports mascots to interact with fair-goers.
There is a Secretary of State Investor Education and Voting Registration booth set up inside the Mercantile Building operating every day of the State Fair.
“Like so many Hoosiers, we’ve been counting down the days until the Great Indiana State Fair, a Hoosier tradition. Since taking office, one of my goals has been to increase voter turnout. Registering to vote only takes a few minutes and our team will be at the State Fair, ready to help you or you can register online anytime. I want to make sure every eligible Hoosier is registered to vote and getting to the polls,” said Diego Morales, Indiana Secretary of State.
IndianaVoters.com allows Hoosiers to register, confirm, or update their voter registration, look up their polling place, get directions to their polling location, find out who’s on their ballot, track their absentee ballot application, and contact their local election officials.
In order to be eligible to register to vote, you must:
- Be a U.S. citizen
- Be at least 18 years old on or before the next general, municipal, or special election
Secretary Morales would like to thank all the fair organizers for their hard work and law enforcement officers for keeping Hoosiers safe throughout the Great Indiana State Fair.
