Description
Monday, Oct. 7 was the final day to register to vote, and just a few weeks from the election, the governor's race in Indiana is getting a lot more attention, national attention. That's bringing new money to the race, and a lot of it.
With Election Day a little less than a month away, a $600,000 donation might seem a little late in the game to some. But the Democratic Governor's Association (DGA) says the investment they're making at this stage in the race is right on time.
"When you make an investment at this point when voters are really just tuning in, that's when it has the biggest impact," said Sam Newton, with the DGA.
Newton says Jennifer McCormick's campaign is gaining momentum, pointing to polling by the Democrats that shows McCormick is closing the gap on Republican candidate and current U.S. Sen. Mike Braun.
