INDIANAPOLIS - Indiana Secretary of State Diego Morales is proud to join our country in celebrating National Voter Education Week which is from October 7th through October 11th, 2024.

With the 2024 General Election quickly approaching, the Secretary of State’s Office is working diligently to ensure that every eligible Hoosier is prepared to vote. Hoosiers can check their voter status, find information about their polling locations, and view general election information by visiting IndianaVoters.com.

“I am committed to ensuring that every eligible Hoosier is equipped to vote with confidence and integrity. National Voter Education Week gives us the opportunity to focus on encouraging informed and responsible voter participation. It’s not just about voting, it’s about safeguarding the principles that make Indiana strong – one of those being safe and secure elections,” said Diego Morales, Indiana Secretary of State.

Secretary Morales continues to visit schools from elementary to colleges/universities across the Hoosier state, engaging with students about the importance of civic involvement.  These visits aim to inspire young Hoosiers to be informed, active participants in the voting process, and understand the value their vote has in shaping Indiana’s future.

As a part of his ongoing efforts to ensure safe, secure, and efficient elections, Secretary Morales is calling on all eligible Hoosiers to inform themselves about Indiana’s election process and get prepared to vote.
