Former Lieutenant Governor Sue Ellspermann Endorses Ballard

Vote for Greg Ballard

Rarely do I miss “the good old days”. However, when it comes to politics, they surely were. I long for the days when candidates ran on their positions, ideas, and values...when campaign messages were controlled by the candidate and funded locally.

Today’s divisiveness is palpable as outside interests control the narratives and candidates. Americans and Hoosiers are tired of federal government gridlock, extreme partisanship, and Washington overreach...including attempts to control our state elections.

That is why I am supporting Greg Ballard for Secretary of State where he will safeguard Indiana’s elections for all Hoosiers. Greg served our nation as a Marine and Indiana as two-term Republican Mayor of Indianapolis. As Lieutenant Governor I was privileged to work alongside Greg. It was refreshing to see how Mayor Ballard deeply engaged with Indianapolis constituents, implemented forward-thinking initiatives, and worked with both sides of the aisle to improve our Capital City.

Greg Ballard will lead with highest integrity as Indiana’s Secretary of State: listening to Hoosiers, protecting our elections, and working in a nonpartisan manner to make Indiana better. Please join me in voting for Greg Ballard for Secretary of State in November.
