INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Indiana Republican gubernatorial nominee U.S. Sen. Mike Braun announced on Wednesday his choice for his running mate in the November election. Braun, who won the recent primary with nearly 40% of votes, first announced his endorsement of state Rep. Julie McGuire in an interview with the Indianapolis Star. Indiana’s lieutenant governor nominees are officially chosen by delegates at annual party conventions, and traditionally, party delegates honor the wishes of the gubernatorial nominee. McGuire was elected to the statehouse just two years ago and represents parts of Marion County. In 2022, she unseated former Republican state Rep. John Jacob, who angered members of his party in part by repeatedly pushing a complete ban on abortion. Indiana’s current law makes exceptions to the ban in rare and limited circumstances. |
