Why is this election so important?
Republicans in the Indiana House have held a “supermajority” of more than 2/3 of seats since 2012.
In 2025-2026, Republicans hold 70 seats in the Indiana House and Democrats hold only 30.
Because Indiana House and Senate maps were drawn by and tend to favor Republicans, many Indiana legislators hold safe seats and often aren’t challenged. That means Republicans in the Indiana House can decide issues essential to Hoosiers behind closed doors, without public hearings, and influenced by big-business donors.
Amy and Indiana House and Senate Democrats believe that all voices should be heard and more balance is needed at the Statehouse.
The voters in District 62 are divided nearly equally into thirds - 1/3 Republicans, 1/3 Democrats, and 1/3 Independents.
Democrats have a good chance of winning this seat in 2026.
Amy is working hard to flip this race, just as she will work hard for you as your representative at the Statehouse.
