This filing season is a first for the HamCo Dems record books. Not only do we have incredible candidates filing for office across the county, we’re seeing multiple Democratic candidates in several races.

Behind every statewide nominee is a room full of delegates. In 2026, Indiana Democrats will once again gather to decide who represents them on the ballot. Our HamCo Dems Vice Chair has attended these conventions and offers insight, tips, and reasons why you should consider becoming one of the state party delegates. 2024 INDems State Party Convention. Ever wondered how we ended up with Micah Beckwith as Lt. Governor? Look no further than the party state conventions . Every tw

What began as a surge of civic engagement has become something larger: a reminder that organized voters still have the power to be heard in a Statehouse long dominated by a single party. As HamCo Dems look toward the 2026 elections, we are sharpening the focus on restoring balance, rebuilding trust, and elevating the voices that have too often gone unheard.

This will be the start of an ongoing series about what it really looks like to run for local office: from exploring the idea, to getting past the doubts, to taking concrete steps toward getting your name on the ballot. Together, we’ll break down the process, share local stories, and show that you have what it takes to lead.

This inaugural event wasn’t just a thank-you; it was a full-on tribute to the grit, heart, and dedication of the people powering our local Democratic efforts. Three special awards were presented—Cream of the Crop, People’s Choice, and the Endurance Award: Volunteer of the Year—with personalized write-ups from fellow HamCo Dems highlighting just how much these volunteers have done to move our mission forward.

Whether you’re a longtime Democrat or just beginning to get engaged in local politics, there’s a place for your energy, skills, and generosity in our movement.

Choosing not to wallow in things so far from my grasp in Washington, I chose to focus on issues and causes closer to home. Just a Democrat surrounded by other Democrats doing what we could, doing good for our friends and neighbors.

HamCo Dems are showing up and showing out in the spaces that matter. Recently, we proved our energy and welcoming spirit by participating in a number of high-profile events that align with our party values.

The Hamilton County Democratic Party is inviting community members to support local families in need by participating in a Diaper Drive on Saturday, June 28 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at EPIC Coffee, located at 7249 E 146th St, Carmel, IN.

You’ve probably heard by now about our major fundraiser on May 30th, Night for the Blues. We’re thrilled to say that the event is officially sold out! While the venue is at capacity, we’d still love to welcome sponsors and donors who want to support our mission.

In the 2025 session, the Indiana Legislature passed a bill called SB1, which Governor Braun signed into law almost immediately. While the bill touts savings on property taxes, most homeowners are expected to save only around $300 per year.
