The republican candidate here is Curtis Hill, the Elkhart county prosecutor, and the democrat is Lorenzo Arredondo, a lake county judge. Hill would be the first African American elected to statewide office, and Arredondo would be the first Hispanic to be elected to or hold statewide office in Indiana. I think Hill is favored, due to my states obvious republican lean. He is also a dynamic speaker, able to fire up a room better than Young or Holcomb. Does anybody have any information on this race? It has received almost no coverage.

Lake County Latinos will turn out in droves for Arredondo.

Arredondo has a much cooler name.

Even though Arredondo is from Lake County, he will probably not get a big enough margin out of Lake County because of tepid support from Black voters. Hill should win easily.

Unless the AA voters just vote straight Dem.

It's disappointing that this race (all statewide races, really) hasn't received more attention. My gut says Hill should win fairly easily, but I suppose it's possible that Gregg and Bayh could pull Arredondo over the line.

Which is likely because I'm guessing most black voters will go to the ballot box without knowing Hill's skin color.

Right, because that's why Ben Carson would be winning in a landslide if he was the nominee against Hillary Clinton among AA voters...

I guess this is a low key race, so the Pub should win this unless Trump loses Indiana.

Minority voters favor Bennet (73, white) over Glenn (15, black) according to a Monmouth poll. A PPP survey earlier says Bennet 52 over Glenn 20 among black voters. Large MOE though.

Most likely this. In 2013 White Republican Ken Cuccinelli did better among black voters than Black Republican E.W. Jackson on the same ballot.

so according some speedy research, Arredondo raised 30k in Q3 and Hill raised about 300k.

Stick a fork in it, folks. Barring an unforeseen army of straight-D Hoosiers.

This race has never looked particularly close, why have people been so interested in it?
