Indiana's secretary of state race brought Greg Ballard back to politics with a plan for more competitive November elections. The former Indianapolis mayor explains why he is running as an independent and how he hopes the Lincoln Party can open a path for other candidates. He discusses collecting 37,000 signatures, spending more than $700,000 to get on the ballot and his argument that voters need more choices beyond the two major parties. Ballard also revisits the Super Bowl Village, the BlueIndy electric car-sharing program and his opposition to Indiana's Religious Freedom Restoration Act. He describes returning from Florida as conventions threatened to leave Indianapolis, challenging fellow Republicans and delivering his message that "Indy welcomes all." He calls the controversy the toughest 10 days of his administration. On BlueIndy, he explains why his Gulf War service shaped his push for electric vehicles and defends the city's investment in underground charging infrastructure. He also discusses the exhaustion that led him to forgo a third term as mayor. His priorities for secretary of state include an office independent of partisan campaigning, public access to contracts and a detailed voters guide tailored to each precinct. He pledges not to endorse, raise money for or donate to other candidates while in office. The conversation closes with a story about taking his daughter to vote and why he refused to let her leave the line.
