Public Interviews for Incumbent Judges, Conservative Group Sues IU, What Impact Debates Have on Elections, Indiana Ranks Low on Child Well-Being

Marion County voters will have 18 judges on their ballot in November for the General Election — on Tuesday, eight incumbent judges recommended for retention will give public interviews. A conservative organization is suing Indiana University for its bias reporting system. Indiana’s three candidates for governor have agreed to at least one televised debate this fall — but can the debates matter? Indiana ranks in the bottom half of all 50 states for child well-being. That’s according to the Annie E. Casey Foundation’s national Kids Count Data Book.
