Mike Braun Secures GOP Nomination in Indiana Gubernatorial Race

Braun's victory sets the stage for a November showdown with Democrat Jennifer McCormick and Libertarian Donald Rainwater.

Braun won the Republican primary amid a record $98 million spent in Indiana’s primaries, with significant focus on the gubernatorial race.
His campaign emphasized educational reforms and economic development, promising to enhance school choice and boost teacher salaries.
The primary results also highlighted a broader reshuffling in Indiana's political landscape, with numerous congressional seats and the gubernatorial seat contested.
McCormick, the Democratic nominee, positions herself against Braun with a platform focused on civility and bipartisanship, aiming to appeal to moderate voters.
Braun's primary win, bolstered by an endorsement from former President Donald Trump, positions him as a strong contender in a predominantly Republican state.
