Northwest Indiana Politics - AG Race and Debate

Northwest Indiana Attorney General Debate

The readers of Porter County Politics will remember the convention competition early this summer, wherein Valparaiso Mayor Jon Costas lost to Deputy Attorney General Greg Zoeller. It was hard fought, but clean and professional. After he lost, Mayor Costas not only endorsed Zoeller but he also asked to chair the campaign.  They have worked together seamlessly over the summer and early fall to make sure that Mr. Zoeller wins.

We have wholeheartedly endorsed Greg Zoeller for Attorney General of the State of Indiana, and we hope you can make time to attend the debate, here's the announcement on NWI Connect today:

Democrat Linda Pence and Republican Greg Zoeller will debate at Purdue Calumet on Tuesday, October 21st. Of course I can't find anything about this on Purdue Cal's website, but it is in the NWI Times.

What's up with local colleges not posting political events on their public calendars? Recently Bob Barr spoke at Valparaiso University and not a word about was to be found on the Valpo website. Oh well. Sorry to get on a tangent.

The debate will take place at noon on the Hammond campus. Further details are pending. Zoeller, who defeated Valparaiso mayor Jon Costas as the Republican Indiana AG nominee, specifically pushed for the debate to held in Northwest Indiana. NWI Connect fully supports Greg Zoeller for AG! Be sure to watch the debates if you can!

Should be a good debate.

dan, I'm not even sure it will be a great debate. Greg Zoeller has experience and will actively pursue fraud ... Linda Pence has the experience of working with some of the groups that the AG would have to pursue, not what we need.

If ACORN needs to be pursued after this election for election fraud, would you expect the Democrat to do so? No

We need Greg Zoeller and the continuation of the solid policies from our current Attorney General's office.
