Meet the Candidate: Coumba Kebe for Indiana State Treasurer

Coumba Kebe is an entrepreneur, healthcare leader, and small-business owner running for Indiana State Treasurer.

So, what does the State Treasurer do? The Treasurer serves as the state’s chief financial officer and is responsible for managing Indiana’s investments, overseeing the state’s banking and financial operations, and serving as a member of the State Board of Finance. The office also plays a role in managing programs and funds that affect Hoosiers across the state.

Kebe says her experience leading healthcare teams and running businesses has shown her firsthand how government decisions affect families, seniors, local communities, and small businesses.

Her campaign is centered on a simple question: Are Indiana’s financial resources being used in ways that benefit Hoosiers?

Kebe points to Indiana’s large state reserves while schools, municipalities, and families continue to face financial pressures. She says the state should focus on responsible financial management while making sure communities and everyday Hoosiers aren’t overlooked.

As a candidate for Treasurer, Kebe says she wants to bring a stronger focus on accountability, responsible stewardship, and putting people first in decisions about Indiana’s finances.

Meet the Candidate: Jessica Bailey for Indiana State Comptroller,

Jessica Bailey is running for Indiana State Comptroller, with a focus on transparency, accountability, and making sure Indiana’s money works for Hoosier communities.

So, what does the State Comptroller do? The office is responsible for accounting for state funds, making payments to state employees and vendors, distributing certain state funds to local governments, and maintaining Indiana’s Transparency Portal, where the public can see information about state spending. The Comptroller also serves on the three-member State Board of Finance, which helps oversee the state’s fiscal affairs and can approve transfers between state funds.

Bailey brings local government experience to the race. A two-term Porter County Clerk, she previously served on the Portage Township School Board. During her time as clerk, she was named Clerk of the Year by the Association of Indiana Counties in 2023, and her office received national recognition for election administration.

Now, Bailey says she wants to bring that same attention to detail and accountability to the state level.

Her priorities include:

🔎 More transparency — making state financial information easier for Hoosiers to find and understand.

💰 Accountability for every dollar — ensuring state funds are properly tracked and distributed on time.

🏛️ Independent oversight — using her seat on the State Board of Finance to ask questions, review documentation, and provide greater scrutiny of financial decisions.

🏘️ Putting communities first — making sure schools, counties, cities, and towns receive the state funding they depend on.

For Bailey, the message is simple: Indiana’s money should serve Indiana communities, and Hoosiers deserve to know where their tax dollars are going.

Meet the Candidate: Beau Bayh for Indiana Secretary of State

Beau Bayh is a seventh-generation Hoosier, U.S. Marine Corps veteran, attorney, and candidate for Indiana Secretary of State.

So, what does the Secretary of State do? The office oversees Indiana’s elections and voter registration, manages business and securities filings, and handles several important responsibilities that help keep Indiana’s government and economy running. The Secretary of State also serves as Indiana’s Chief Election Officer.

Beau’s background is rooted in public service. He served in the U.S. Marine Corps as an Infantry Officer, rising to the rank of Captain. His military service took him around the world, including Europe, where he supported U.S. and NATO operations following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. He also trained allied military forces in South America.

After being honorably discharged in 2023, Beau earned his law degree from Harvard Law School. He previously earned a degree in Government from Harvard University, where he was a Division I athlete and served on the Undergraduate Honor Council. He later served as a Judicial Law Clerk for Judge David F. Hamilton on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit.

Bayh says he wants to bring the leadership, integrity, and transparency he learned in the Marines to the Secretary of State’s office. His campaign focuses on protecting Hoosier voters, addressing what he describes as corruption and wasteful spending, protecting taxpayers, and working across party lines to improve state government.

His message: Public service should mean serving the public — not a political party or yourself.

Do you have a sign yet?

Loved seeing the various fall decorations while I was out canvassing, but might I suggest blue and gold get added to your fall colors this year?

I've got about 75 yard signs available, I'd love to get some out in yards, it's very humbling to see the support when I'm out and about.

If anyone is interested in placing a large (roughly 4x8 foot) sign on a high traffic road, please message me asap!
