2 Indiana Secretary of State candidates qualify for FOX59/CBS4 debate
Bayh and Engling cleared Nexstar’s 10% polling threshold, while Greg Ballard and Lauri Shillings were excluded from the live televised debate.
- A Free Press Indiana poll released Friday shows Democrat Beau Bayh leading the Indiana Secretary of State race with 43% support, compared to 35% for Republican Max Engling in this year's most high-profile statewide contest.
- Higher name recognition boosts Bayh, with 35% of voters viewing him favorably compared to 48% who have never heard of Engling, according to the survey of 839 likely voters conducted October 8-11.
- Lincoln Party candidate Greg Ballard and Libertarian candidate Lauri Shillings failed to qualify for the October 22 televised debate on FOX59 and CBS4 because neither reached the 10% polling support threshold required by the stations' parent company.
- Objecting to the exclusion, Greg Ballard's campaign called the decision unfair, while Democratic manager Jack Tormoehlen asserted the poll "shows the momentum for change in Indiana is real."
- Victory for Bayh in November would mark the first statewide Democratic win since 2012, when former U.S. Senator Joe Donnelly was elected to the Senate. Early voting is now available for Indiana residents.
