Show Notes
Indianas seventh congressional district, represented by Democrat André Carson for nearly two decades, is now facing a three-way primary challenge on May fifth. The district, which includes six northern townships of Marion County, will likely see a new representative as no Republicans are contesting. Carson, a fifty-one-year-old Muslim member of Congress, is being challenged by George Hornedo, Destiny Wells, and Denise Paul Hatch, who criticize him for accepting corporate PAC donations. Hornedo, a thirty-five-year-old Obama-era attorney, has loaned his campaign $55,000 and raised over $200,000. Wells, a forty-two-year-old Army reserve lieutenant colonel, focuses on AI data center risks and utility hikes. Hatch, a sixty-six-year-old former constable, targets homelessness and Medicaid expansion for all pregnant women. The primary will test if fresh blood can unseat the veteran representative, with finance reports set to drop on April fifteenth.
