In a November election rarity, sunshine and moderate fall temperatures greeted voters who made their way out to the polls Tuesday in Northwest Indiana.
About 27,500 people had voted by about 12:30 p.m. in Lake County, Michelle Fajman, election board director there, said. Two polling places, one in Merrillville and one in Munster, opened a little late, but the election otherwise is running smoothly, she said.
Democrat Josh Huddlestun and independent Teddian Jackson each viewed what appeared to be a steady voter turnout Tuesday as a positive sign. Hobart independent mayoral candidate Teddian Jackson visits with a campaign worker for a city council hopeful on Tuesday, Nov. 7, 2023, at a polling site at the Hobart Community Center. Both men spent the day crisscrossing the city, making stops at all 13 polling sites to meet with voters.
