JAY CO. – Secretary of State Diego Morales visits several counties to deliver election improvement grants.
On Tuesday, he made a stop in Jay County and has more stops planned for the week.
Since the start of the year, Secretary Morales has delivered grant checks to more than 60 Indiana counties.
The counties are receiving grant dollars from the Federal Help America Vote Act to improve local election security and conduct local election improvements. Statewide grants are valued at approximately 2 million dollars.
After presenting a check in Jay County, Secretary Morales visited with the DeKalb County and Elkhart County clerks and the Noble County Sheriff.
“This grant money is going directly to our local counties to enhance election integrity and security statewide. I’ve placed a significant focus on building and maintaining relationships with county clerks and other elected leaders across our state. Partnerships like these will help make Indiana even stronger,” said Indiana Secretary of State Diego Morales.
