Thank You!

Tuesday, voters in Harrison County went to the polls and made history.

A higher proportion of votes were cast for Republicans in an election than ever before in county history. Republicans won every single race, and this was the fifth consecutive election in Harrison County in which the Republicans won every county office.

This election saw many historic results in Harrison County. The first woman ever (Annissa Kellum-Reas) has been elected as county commissioner. More votes were cast for the Republican state representative candidate for our area (Karen Engleman) than ever before. The county vote totals for the Republican candidates for President (Donald Trump), Senate (Jim Banks), Attorney General (Todd Rokita), Congress (Erin Houchin), Commissioner (Nelson Stepro), Coroner (Jeremy McKim), Council (Sherry Brown), and Recorder (Sandy Stepro) were record highs for those offices. No Republican candidate received less than 72% of the vote, which was also a record.

The tireless efforts of countless individuals brought us to this victory. It was made possible by hard work and dedication by a lot of great people: citizens, volunteers, candidates, and their family and friends.

Most of all, it came from the votes of the people of Harrison County. It came from people who took the time to request and mail in a ballot. It came from people who stood in line for sometimes over two hours to vote early at the courthouse in Corydon. It came from people who voted on Election Day.

Much was made nationally in this campaign season about the health of American democracy. In Harrison County, we know from this year’s result that American democracy has never been stronger: more people voted in this election than ever in Harrison County history, and they voted more Republican than ever before.

The campaign and this election cycle are now at an end. The task of bringing good, conservative government to Harrison County and working for everyone in our county continues.

We said in the campaign making America great again starts right here in Harrison County, and we will do our part.

In the days, weeks, months, and years to come, your Republican elected officials will—as always—strive to serve Harrison County, Indiana, and America with honor, integrity, and conservative common sense.

We will continue to deliver good, conservative government. We also hope to continue to provide a government of which you can be proud.

Thank you for your support, your prayers, and your vote.

This was truly your victory.
