Internal Poll: Indiana Governor’s Race a “Toss-Up” Thanks to Anger Over Abortion Ban, Direction of The State.
Today, the McCormick for Governor campaign released a statewide survey that shows the 2024 Indiana Governor’s race is very competitive. Voters are unhappy with the direction of the state and overwhelmingly reject the extreme, near-total abortion ban passed following the Dobbs Supreme Court decision. McCormick is in the strongest position of any recent Democrat to win in 2024 and bring civility back to Indiana’s politics.
Indiana voters express strong pessimism about the state’s current direction, with just 26 percent saying the state is headed in the right direction, while 54 percent feel things are off track. Pessimism about the state’s direction stretches across partisan and demographic lines, with majorities of virtually every demographic subgroup saying the state is on the wrong track. This is clearly an electorate that is looking for change. The results further highlight Jennifer McCormick’s alignment with the majority of Hoosiers who strongly disagree with Indiana’s near-total abortion ban, the first passed following the Dobbs decision. Factoring information about leading statewide Republican support for these bans, and McCormick’s pledge to put women in charge of their own healthcare decisions, the race is a dead heat.“Being committed to standing up for women and preserving Hoosier’s freedoms, has clearly struck a chord with the majority of voters,” said Dr. Jennifer McCormick, candidate for Governor. “Unfortunately, the leading Republican candidates for Governor not only stand with the recent attacks on women’s healthcare in Indiana, but they will take those extreme bans even further. The poll results reflect what I am already hearing from Hoosiers across the state, regardless of political affiliation. They are ready for a Governor focused on bringing people together, finding common ground, and protecting our freedoms. I am that leader.”
The McCormick for Governor campaign is harnessing this momentum to fuel an already intense ground game, engaging directly with voters through community events, town halls, and grassroots initiatives.McCormick’s extensive experience in leadership makes her a formidable contender, equipped with the knowledge and vision to lead Indiana into a future where individual liberties and freedoms are protected and celebrated.
As the 2024 election approaches, The McCormick for Governor campaign remains committed to addressing the concerns of every citizen, and working across the aisle in a bipartisan and respectful manner. With the support of Hoosiers across the State, Jennifer McCormick is the only choice for voters who seek effective leadership and meaningful change.
