McCormick, Now A Democrat, Running For Governor

On Wednesday, Dr. Jennifer McCormick announced her candidacy on the democratic ticket for Indiana governor via a YouTube video. Mark Newhart is Clint County Democratic Party Chairman and says McCormick is scheduled to be the guest speaker at the May 9th Democratic Central Committee Meeting in Clinton County at Frankfort VFW. Doors open at 6 and she will speak sometime after 7 in the meeting.

McCormick was the last person to hold the title of State Superintendent before it became a position appointed by the governor within the new State Secretary of Education office.  Now in her push to run for governor, her campaign says “she will bring common sense and bipartisanship back to the statehouse.”

McCormick intends to run as a Democrat after having been a Republican while serving as State Superintendent. She is the first to make an official announcement to run for governor on the Democratic ticket in 2024.  The Republican ticket includes Sen. Mike Braun, Lt. Gov. Suzanne Crouch, and Eric Doden. Donald Rainwater is also running again as a Libertarian.
