INDIANAPOLIS – Outgoing Gov. Eric Holcomb took time on election night to celebrate Indiana’s new Governor-Elect, Mike Braun, and the state’s new U.S. Senator, Jim Banks. Both produced resounding victories in Tuesday’s statewide elections.
Holcomb said, “It’s been an honor and privilege of a lifetime to serve 6.8 million Hoosiers over these last eight years. Congratulations to Governor-Elect Braun on this same opportunity to lead our state next as Indiana’s 52nd Governor. During these last two months of my term, our Administration, like all those before me, will provide the support Governor-Elect Braun needs to ensure a smooth transition for our great State and most importantly the citizens that call Indiana home.”
He continued, “Senator-Elect Jim Banks has a long history of strong public service to our shared great State and Country. His work ethic, knowledge, and leadership will be desperately needed in our nation’s capital to seriously address the out-of-control $35T national debt, a border policy that lets in illegal abusers and keeps out legal aspiring U.S. immigrants, and an urgent need to modernize our national defense capabilities.”
