Election 2026

Election 2026

WNIN's goal is to thoroughly cover the 2026 election, treating each individual story as a facet of the overall 2026 election picture. Most stories will be on county races and ‘higher,’ starting in Vanderburgh County.

  • Vanderburgh County Election Board members execute a mock election Thursday, Sept, 29. The votes are entered via touch screen. The machine then prints a small paper ballot to be tabulated.
